Toorak College is proudly partnering with local charity, ‘Mums Supporting Families In Need’, this festive season, offering those families a Christmas they will cherish forever.
MSFIN volunteers deliver Christmas presents to children who would otherwise miss out and food hampers to local families in need.
In the true spirit of giving, all proceeds from tonight’s battery candle, battery LED foam wand and reindeer ears will go to Mums Supporting Families in Need.
We have also been holding a donation drive, collecting presents and food hampers for families in our community.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO COUNTRY
Today and every day, we acknowledge the Bunurong People as the Traditional Owners of the land we live and learn on, here at Toorak College. With open hearts we pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise their ongoing connection to the land and the bay, Nairm.
Our students, teachers and families are knowledge seekers. As we listen to the stories of the First Nations, we will question and reflect in order to continue our reconciliation journey.

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN
Frosty the Snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corn cob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal.
Frosty the Snowman is a fairy tale they say, He was made of snow but the children know How he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in The old silk hat they found. For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around. Oh,
Frosty the Snowman was alive as he could be. And the children say he could laugh and play Just the same as you and me.
Thumpety, thump, thump, thumpety, thump, thump. Look at Frosty go. Thumpety, thump, thump, thumpety, thump, thump. Over the hills of snow.
Sing Along
JOY TO THE WORLD
Joy to the world! The Lord is come; Let earth receive her King; Let ev’ry heart prepare Him room, And heav’n and nature sing, And heav’n and nature sing, And heav’n and nature sing,
Joy to the earth! The Savior reigns; Let men their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy.
He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love.

RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen, But do you recall, the most famous reindeer of all?
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer Had a very shiny nose, And if you ever saw it, You would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names, They never let poor Rudolph Join in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say, “Rudolph with your nose so bright, Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee: “Rudolph the Red-nosed reindeer, You’ll go down in history!”

LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW
Oh the weather outside is frightful But the fire is so delightful, And since we’ve no place to go, Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
It doesn’t show signs of stopping, And I brought some corn for popping, The lights are turned way down low, Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
When we finally kiss goodnight, How I hate going out in the storm! But if you’ll really hold me tight, All the way home I’ll be warm.
The fire is slowly dying, And my dear we’re still good-bye-ing, But as long as you love me so, Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

Voices singing “Let’s be jolly, Deck the Halls with boughs of holly.”

SILENT NIGHT
Silent night! Holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child, Holy infant, so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent Night! Holy Night!
Shepherds quake at the sight!
Glories stream from Heaven afar
Heav’nly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ, the Saviour, is born!
Christ, the Saviour, is born!
Silent Night! Holy Night!
Son of God, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

JINGLE-BELL ROCK
Jingle-bell, Jingle-bell, Jingle-bell rock
Jingle-bell swing and Jingle-bells ring.
Snowin’ and blowin’ up bushels of fun
Now the jingle-hop has begun.
Jingle-bell, Jingle-bell, Jingle-bell rock
Jingle-bell chime in Jingle-bell time.
Dancin’ and prancin’ in Jingle-bell Square
In the frosty air.
What a bright time, it’s the right time
To rock the night away.
Jingle-bell time is a swell time
To go glidin’ in a one-horse sleigh.
Giddy-up, Jingle-horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock.
Mix and mingle in a jinglin’ beat
That’s the jingle-bell rock.
What a bright time, it’s the right time
To rock the night away.
