Boarders’ Help the Homeless Hamper

As well as opening their own Advent Calendars each day, our Boarders pledged to donate one item daily for our Help the Homeless Hamper. Head Girl of Boarding, Ruslana F and Year 12 Nikita A are pictured with the hamper which was delivered on Thursday to Merseyside Youth Association’s Young Person’s Foodbank.

Charity and service is an important part of our curriculum at Liverpool College.

Carolling for Cancer Research UK

Charity and Service are an important strand of our curriculum - LCA+. As part of their Archbishop of York Award, some Year 9 pupils went carolling across the campus. Their goal was to raise spirits, eyebrows, and monies for their chosen charity, Cancer Research UK. They were warmly welcomed wherever they went, and their peers rewarded their Purpose and Passion with generous donations to their cause.

Service of Lessons and Carols

The Senior School and Sixth Form, along with governors, Foundation members, parents and families, gathered at Liverpool Cathedral for the annual Service of Lessons and Carols, led by our Chaplain, Mr Hammersley.

The entire evening was filled with music, reflection and the hope of Christmas. The music was led by our choir and orchestra, under the direction of Mr Bishop (Director of Music) and Miss Clark. The school was contacted by parents after the event to ask us to pass on their thanks to the pupils and staff for making this such a special service and perfect preparation for the Christmas season. As one Old Lerpoolian said of the choir: I could listen to a lot more of that!
