A live video link with Colombia
The end of a long and busy term, but the children are full of festive cheer and have had huge fun celebrating Christmas at the end of term together. 'Three cheers' and thank you to Andy Wright and his excellent catering team.

The highlight of the celebration was undoubtedly the live link in the theatre with Let The Children Live, the charity in Colombia that the children are supporting. Over £5,800 has been raised during the term by way of a whole school sponsored silence and collections at concerts and end of term plays.

Catherine, Freya, Cosmo, Samuel and Isabel are given the opportunity to ask questions
It is the first time that Farleigh has been able to organise a live link with Fr Peter in South America and and it made a huge impression on everyone. It was very moving and poignant to hear children from Medellïn in Colombia communicate with Farleigh pupils and sing to them, including 'O, come all ye faithful' in Latin.
