Carol Service
A Carol Service, of one hour duration, is held in the CE de Wet Hall on the second last day of the academic year. The choir files into the darkened hall bearing candles and singing Once in Royal David's City. The programme is interspersed with Bible readings, prayers, congregational singing and choir and solo performances. The performance of O Holy Night is always memorable.
