Joyous Christmas Concert

Today was our last u3a meeting of the year and we enjoyed our Joyous Christmas Concert in style. A wonderful group of children from St George’s Catholic School gave us a medley of Christmas carols. They sang their hearts out and had us all toe tapping in time with their tunes.
We had a short play about being Christmas ready but somehow I think all the planning in the world still leaves us rushing for that forgotten thing!
We listened to Tony play his violin and joined in with carols as Chris, ably aided by Lynne, played the piano beautifully.

The proceeds from our programme sale and a retiring collection was received by Paula, one of the fund raising team at Woodlands Hospice.

Rev Ralph gave the blessing and tea/coffee/ mince pies awaited us in the hall.

Those who had helped with the concert then went on to Ladygreen to rest on our laurels as we tucked in to our festive meal.
A great start to our Christmas holiday!! Thank you to all who supported us this morning and throughout the year 🎄🎄🎄🍾🎉🎁
