​Advent is a Christian season of four weeks leading up to Christmas. The word "Advent" comes from the Latin adventus, meaning "coming" or "arrival". It is a time for spiritual reflection, with each week traditionally focusing on a different theme: hope, peace, joy, and love, often represented by the four candles lit on an Advent wreath each Sunday.

Choir at Christchurch 

The Eureka Choir was delighted to perform once again in Christchurch Cathedral on Monday with their teachers Ms. Lyne, Ms. Olohan & Ms. McCartin. This is always the highlight of the Christmas Season for the choir.
The choir will also perform at the school carol service this Thursday & they will top off their Christmas performances in the Headfort Arms as guests of Mathew Gilsenan at his Christmas Concert on 21st December.
Tickets available in the hotel or on eventbrite.ie
