College Carol Service Brings Festive Cheer
Christmas Carol Service
Thank you to our very talented College Choir for their outstanding singing as part of our Carol Service which take place in the College Chapel. Afterwards there was an opportunity for young people attending (and the not-so-young!) to visit Father Christmas and enjoy a range of hands-on Christmas arts and crafts activities, including letter writing to Santa. The event provides a wonderful opportunity for our College community to come together and share in the festive spirit. Refreshments were served afterwards in the Beechmount Dining Hall with music will provided by St Mary’s University College Trad Society.
