Featuring the voices of Andrew Chinn, Eleanor Chinn, Claire Pruscino, Michelle Hicks and Drew Lane. Movement by students from St Patrick's, Geelong West, VIC, with thanks to Julie Prendergast and Richard Sentfleben. "
"Irish Christmas Blessing" was written on, of all days, Boxing Day 2023! I was just enjoying the quiet of the lunch break in the cricket and was scrolling through some posts from friends on Facebook. Diane Kennedy Wick, a friend I taught with many, many years ago, and who shares Irish heritage, posted an Irish Christmas Blessing. I loved the words so much that I played around with them and turned them into a song within an hour.
Thanks to all who shared their gifts to create this joyful Christmas song.
And this prayerful mantra, written in 2015 with the school community of Siena Catholic Primary School, Sippy Downs, on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. Given new life by students from St Martin's, Greenacres, SA, who let me know they'd created a movement so we filmed it when I was visiting in March 2024.
