Happy December to you!
Over the past few years we have participated in a Christmas Concert with the Knockadoon Music and Liturgy leaders and participants. This year we are being joined by Eileen Bird's Choir for a night of Carols in St Dominic's Church, Tallaght on the 28th December at 7:30. We had mentioned this in KAD this year.
The St. Henry District High School (SHDHS) Chamber Choir is a small choir of 12 high school teenagers who travel every other year to Europe.
This is the choir's first trip to Ireland. Eileen is really excited about us joining them for a night of song and afterwards for some sort of small social.

The plan for the day is as follows...
Meet in St Dominic's at 5:30 for a rehearsal which will start at 6pm sharp.
Concert at 7:30pm - 9pm and then a small social gathering afterwards.
