On Wednesday evening Archbishop Holgate’s School celebrated their annual carol service in York Minster. This event has grown in recent years to become a popular community occasion and one of the largest school carol services in the region.
Over a thousand parents, governors, friends of the school and members of the public filled the nave and aisles of the Cathedral, joined by Alison White, the Bishop of Hull. There they heard the Christmas story retold through the music, drama, bible readings, carols and dance. This was done with a particular focus on how the Christmas story reflects the power of God.
