OTs and their partners joined us for our annual London OT Carol Service at St-Giles-In-The-Fields, London WC2 on Monday 1 December 2025.
The Festival of Six Lessons and Carols was delivered by Tonbridge School Chaplain,The Reverend David Peters, accompanied by The Reverend Fergus Butler-Gallie (PS 05-10) who joined us from his parish in Oxfordshire. OTs were hearty in their carol singing, and enjoyed Tonbridge favourites Hark! The Herald Angels Sing and The First Nowell.
The lessons were read by The Reverend Fergus Butler-Gallie, Angus Balfour (FH 15-20), Nicholas Pearce (PH 72-77), Peter Dodge (OTS Committee, MH 73-78), James Priory (Headmaster) and The Reverend Tom Sander (Rector of St Giles-in-the-Fields).
Following the Carol Service, OTs and their guests gathered for a drink at The Angel pub next door.
With many thanks to The Reverend Tom Sander and Lesley Goddard of St-Giles-In-The-Fields for all their help again this year.
All OTs and their families are very welcome to The Midnight Mass of the Nativity (by candlelight) which will be celebrated with Carols at the Chapel of St Augustine, Tonbridge on Wednesday 24 December, Christmas Eve, at 11.30 pm.
