Description: Loreto Convent School, Delhi Cantt held the school concert from 07 to 10 November 13, 2017. This was part of the celebrations of 175 years of Loreto in India. The event began with the students of classes 10 and 12 singing a Welsh Hymn, Calon Lan, on invoking the Almighty for an honest and pure heart. This was followed by the presentation of the musical Annie, who yearns to be reunited with her parents who had left her at the doorstep of an orphanage with a mean matron Miss Hannigan. She runs away from the orphanage repeatedly, because she does not believe that belongs there. When she gets opportunity to stay for Christmas at the mansion of a billionaire, she does get overwhelmed by the wealth and comfort she gets to enjoy, yet stays grounded and still believes that she belongs with her real parents. It is only when the impostors Lily and Rooster enter, that she comes to know that her real parents are no more. She then accepts the billionaire’s proposition to adopt her.
