Local Festivals: One Tree Hill Festival & Hither Green Week
Two delightful local festivals in South-East London this week, we picked our best bits from One Tree Hill Festival & Hither Green Week including the Fairlawn Singers, a Morris Dancing lesson and a Bengal Buffet.
One Tree Hill Festival
St Augustine’s is very excited to be launching the first One Tree Hill Festival. They hope this will be an annual event as a way of gathering together local creativity in SE23. They’ve joined forces with lots of local artists, musicians and organisations to bring you a really fantastic line up. Download the full programme here

The Fairlawn Singers invite you to join them for a fun sing along evening. Well known songs of all sorts are on the menu! With some special guest soloists and other surprises, this promises to be a great event. Come and Sing is led by the choir’s musical director, Alistair Digges, who plans to make the rafters ring at St Augustine’s. Come along and join the singing, or just to listen and enjoy.
