The annual Prep School Christmas Carol Service was held last week, where both the Prep Junior and Senior choirs, accompanied by the orchestra, led all in a beautiful evening of song and celebration. Rev Sue Taylor led the service in the Sport Centre, which was beautifully decorated by artwork from the Prep girls. A highlight of the evening was when the lights were switched off in order for candle light to flood the venue during the signing of Silent Night.
We are assembled here in love,
We are united, we care for one another.
The greatest lesson of all is the one
That teaches us to live together, together.
Refrain:
Everyone’s a spark and in the night
Together we make a light, a fire burning bright
Ad Dei Gloriam; Inkosi mayibongwe:
To the glory of our God: this is what we believe.
In times of trouble we support
Our fellows; we are taught to be there for our friends.
And all around us, there will be
That special unity, that binds us all together.
If we come back after many years,
We will think fondly of the things that we remember,
And the friends that we made then,
These will be friends forever, forever.
By Thandi Siebert, Head Girl 1993
