CHOIR CONCERT
WAIKATO DIOCESAN SCHOOL Bach’s “Peasant Cantata” was rendered by the school choir at the Waikato Diocesan School on two nights in aid of the funds for building an assembly hall. Mrs S. Jackson, who trained the choir, was at the piano, and the soloists were Barbara Calvert and Heather MacDiarmid. On the programme were also two one-act plays, “Oliver’s Island,” from A. A. Milne’s “Make Believe,” which transported the audience to the land of pirates, cannibals and barley-sugar trees, and John Drinkwater’s poetical drama, “ X Equals O, a Night of the Trojan War.” The plays were produced by Miss Z. Robins. Three songs by Handel, “Light Is My Heart,” “Sweet Day” and “Pleasures Banish Pain,” were sung by the choir as an entr’acte.
