Lots of photos followed by a tour of the Sydney Opera House filled the morning. Our guide was highly knowledgeable and, despite not being a teacher, had a very impressive teacher-voice (we almost didn't need the headsets!).
Finding the Guylian Chocolate Cafe to drink the delectable hot chocolate was the girls' goal for the rest of the morning.
We headed Mrs Macquarie's Chair for lunch, but didn't last long in the freezing wind!
Our first concert today was in the Starlight Room at the Sydney Children's Hospital. A private channel broadcasts the activities of the Starlight Room so children in the wards can experience what goes on in the room. The students performed a variey of upbeat songs which were well received by Captain Coco and rest of the live audience.
After a quick rehearsal in the beautiful St Luke's in Mosman, we headed back to our accomodation for dinner. Our evening concert at St Luke's was attended by some Grammar VIPs: the daughters of T.B. Whight and the great-granddaughter of Mary Agnes Donald!
Off to Canberra tomorrow - a lot of us were surprised by the cold in Sydney so Canberra will be interesting!
