As 2013 winds down (holy moly, the days are flying by!), life at AHF is never boring...always busy...keeps reminding us of the goodness with which we are surrounded.
This week, we celebrated Thanksgiving early. We joined the entire AHF community with a number of the Sisters who live in the Holy Family Motherhouse. This was a great treat, especially since the tradition has been for the Sisters to share a pre-Thanksgiving meal with the Resident students. This time, ALL of our students...Day and Resident...welcomed the Sisters to Hanlon Hall for a dinner prepared with all of the trimmings! Miss Fran and Coach Tina prepared the meal, with Mrs. Sobanski's Foods classes providing the desserts. It was a menu fit for any family's dinner table, and we were blessed to share it with our AHF family.
We were also treated with some entertainment that included some of our talented students, as well as an unexpected presentation by one of our beloved alumnae :) Here is Sr. Lucette favoring us with the famous "Turkey Song!"
On Friday night, 11/22, the Concert Choir hit the road to leave their mark on the Providence Bruins' rink at the Dunkin' Donuts Center. Singing "America the Beautiful," these eight, talented and lovely young women, totally rocked the arena with their two-part version of the beloved song. The oldest (and smallest) of the three groups that performed, they demonstrated a level of performance that really set the bar pretty high. Following their performance, they enjoyed the game with friends, family and fans, and were treated to a Bruins win over the Bridgeport Tigers.
What's coming up next? Teens in Action is sponsoring the first of two traditional FILL THE BUS! sessions at the Norwich Stop & Shop. Check out the link for more info!
And now, to prepare for the week to come. As always, thank you for your interest in the Academy of the Holy Family, and for supporting us in any way that you can!
Have a blessed day!
