The John of Gaunt School Christmas Carol Concert
On Tuesday 19th December, the Music department held its annual Christmas Carol Concert at Holy Trinity Church.
This was the first live Carol Concert since 2019 after having to record our concerts in the last few years due to Covid-19. It was wonderful to have the Church full once again with an audience of 300 people coming to see students from all years, and staff performing.
The Carol Concert was opened by Year 7 student Dominic Purches who sang the opening verse from Once in Royal David’s City by candlelight. A variety of music was performed by the different ensembles and also included the traditional carols for everyone to join in with. Everyone left the service feeling festive!
The collection raised £172 which is being divided, and given to the Church fund and Action for Children. The Music department would like to thank all the students who were involved and all the parents, relatives and friends who have supported this Christmas event.
We would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas!
