In 1977, Holy Cross Primary School Choir recorded a Long playing album. We used to say "an L P" way back then! The Title was "Merrily We Sing". As so many of the children went on to St Patrick's Convent School, I thought I'd post a little about it. Until recently, I was the proud owner of a copy of this wonderful recording. (The record has gone to a very good home, so don't feel sad!)

The record had some great songs on it, including "Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor" and, of course, "Holy Cross School Song".

The choir was a mixed one, boys and girls. I have taken the picture of the little songbirds directly from the album so I hope it will be clear enough. If you or someone you know is in this picture, please let me know.

I will try to publish the names of the children in the picture but, hopefully, someone out there will be able to supply me with a name or two.
