Croftfest 24th September – please come and join us for some great food and games!!
Brockley Max events at St Hilda’s much appreciated
Our fun ‘Hairbrush choir’ sang ABBA – thank you Mr Tait for leading the workshop.
Poems, readings and song on the Theme ‘Asylum’ were recieved most beautifully by 20 people – allowing the reality of so many over the centruies to be present and to our hearts with the need of those displaced from Syria and Iraq – thank you to Cherry, Alex and all contributors.
The ‘Three Cajun Pigs’ delighted 120 children – the usual story of straw sticks and bricks – but with and Aligator testing out the Littel pigs Houses with his tail – it gets a light cooking in the hearth pot before they have mercy and let the villain go.
Ryoko Piano in concert – with Anisa – viola – a memorable and elegant recital, with 22 present enjoying a quality performance of Rameau, Ravel and Chopin piano solos and a viola sonata composed by Rebecca Clarke. Thank you Ryoko and Anisa, to St Hilda’s concert team, and to our kind audience for generous donations to expenses.
