Principal Barnes addresses the audience 
It was a wonderful occasion at Holy Family School Hall today as all the members of 4th class group gave a graduation performance in the school hall.  We all  enjoyed it very much and I was so proud of how well everyone played  but also how courteous the groups were when listening both to the choir and the other violin group. We had a very a busy morning as we had a dress rehearsal before the main event. The concert was closed by the Holy Family  School Choir. There wasn't a dry eye in the house as they sang 'One Small Voice ' .

Bows aloft!




  We wish them well in representing the school in the Walton's Music in School's Celebration concert at the National Concert Hall. Holy Family Senior School have been nominated in as one of six finalists .
 We bid farewell to Abbie in Ms Gills class who is leaving Holy Family to attend Stone Hall School
I enjoyed very much meeting many of the parents at the coffee and biscuits reception. How wonderful to meet Hannah's Nana !  Hannah's Nana told me that she has been attending events at Holy Family School for 40 years  both with her own children and now her grandchildren. Wow !  Honoured to have you with us Hannnah's Nana. What a lot of events you must have seen over all those years.

Bravo tutti
