This year, we also had a Piper from the Liverpool Scottich Pipe band and entertainment provided by Jim Milne. As you can see from this small selection of photo’s all our visitors had a great time and a wonderful start to their Christmas festivities.

Once again, the Town Council, as a major sponsor, was delighted to welcome back to halewood, members of the world famous Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra for this years christmas concert. A massed choir from all Halewood Primary Schools, Halewood Academy and the Community Choir, put on a spectacular show which also featured dramatic performances by Merseyside Arts and Theatre Education and Altru Drama.

‘Magical’ was how one member of the audience described what was a truly wonderful evening, one which showcased all that is good about the community of Halewood. Well done and thank you to all concerned.
