Carol Concert

9 December 2025

On Tuesday 9 December we held our annual carol concert. Each of our Year 7 form classes learnt a different carol, which they led with enthusiasm during the service.

Carol Concert Reading 1

Staff and students performed in our choir and orchestra and our students delivered the readings, which told the Christmas story. The Old Chapel was beautifully decorated by Mrs Di Biasio, our Admissions Officer, and our guests enjoyed hot chocolate, shortbread, gingerbread and mince pies to help them get into the Christmas spirit. We thank our staff and especially over 30 Sixth Form students who volunteered their time to help the event run smoothly.

Thanks to the generosity of our guests, we raised over £300 for the Jesuit Refugee Service UK in our retiring collection.
