PREPARING FOR THE TRANSFORMATION



This week has seen the completion of the work needed to get the old parish rooms ready to be transformed into the new Parish Hospitality Centre.  

The stripping off of the wallpaper in the central corridor exposed this mural, painted when the School was here.      It's in incredibly good condition.      How has it survived?    It'll probably be covered up again in a day or two.       When was it done?    If you can tell us more, please comment below.




This part of the coffee room is diagonally opposite the corner where we got our cuppas after Mass until last week, but it's in a better position.    For one thing, a a queue here will not clog up the entrance to the room.      The corner has been completely cleared, so as to make it ready for the new kitchen furniture to be installed.

the letters were part of a phonetic reading scheme being used at that time. It was painted circa 1992 - maybe not quite as old as the paintings unearthed in Chauvet but still nice to see them one more time! I'm still trying to track down who the artist was.
