Welcome to our Advent Calendar for 2012

To start us off this year we have a video “The Australian 12 days of Christmas”, performed by the West Australian Dance (Perth technical college) in 1985

 


Australian Twelve Days of Christmas – WA Dance… by wildwinni

 
The 12 days of Christmas are traditionally the days after Christmas, usually starting on 25th December. The original song is thought to be French and based around a game, although it became popular as an English Carol. It was first published in a children’s book “Mirth without Mischief” in about 1790.
