Fir Trees and Cinnamon Candles

With fir trees exquisitely adorned in the hall and main entrance, and cinnamon candles brightly lit, there is an undeniable frisson of wonder at the moment. Both of this week’s concerts were sublime, in no small measure because of the responses from the large number of people who attended.

In the words of Year 6 scholar, Erin, 'The atmosphere backstage was a frisson of excitement...in contrast, the school hall felt tranquil and calm amidst an aroma of cinnamon candles which wafted through the air.'
