Tonight we enjoyed a truly lovely Christmas Celebration filled with carols, readings and music, bringing our school community together in a very special way. It was great to see the church so full, with staff, parents, pupils and former pupils all gathered to celebrate the season.

This year’s celebration was particularly significant as we marked the departure of Miss Temple, who is leaving us after 20 years of outstanding service. It was a special evening, made even more memorable by the presence of former students who returned to share in the celebration and help honour her remarkable contribution to the life of the school.

We thank Miss Temple for the countless productions, concerts, carol services and Mhelliahs she has led over the years, inspiring generations of pupils. We wish her every success and happiness in her new role.

Our sincere thanks go to all the students for their wonderful contributions through singing and readings, and to the Music and Drama Departments for organising such a fantastic programme. The variety of readings, songs and musical pieces was superb, culminating in a rousing final performance by the staff band that brought the evening to a joyful close.

A memorable and uplifting celebration for all involved.
