Christmas Performances
8 December 2008 in School News
Please join us for a variety of festive music and entertainment this month:
CHRISTMAS MUSIC IN POLWARTH CHURCH
On Wednesday 10th December at 2pm, our pupils and teachers will provide an hour of Christmas music in Polwarth Church. There will also be a performance by the School Orchestra and plenty of carol singing so please come along and join in.
EVENING PERFORMANCE OF OUR CHRISTMAS PLAYS
On Wednesday 17th December at 7pm, we will be holding an evening performance of our traditional Christmas plays which our teachers perform each year as a gift to our pupils.
These plays were performed by ordinary people for hundreds of years in the small Austrian village of Oberufer and have gradually evolved into a blend of folk humour and reverence.
The evening performance will include The Paradise Play, which tells the story of the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise but ends with the promise of future salvation and The Shepherds Play which tells the story of the birth of Jesus. The final play, The Kings Play, will be performed in January.
