"Let care be taken to restore, at least in the principal churches, the ancient Scholae Cantorum, as has been done with excellent fruit in a great many places. It is not difficult for a zealous clergy to institute such Scholae even in smaller churches and country parishes"
[Pope Pius X in his Inter Sollicitudines, issued motu proprio on 22 November 1903]

SCHOLA CANTORUM SANCTAE CRUCIS

- Schola Cantorum of the Holy Cross

The Schola Cantorum is Lewisham's proper liturgical choir, whose duty it is to sing the Mass and the Divine Office, primarily on Sundays and First Class Feasts. It consists of laymen under the direction of Mr Gregory Tondys. The Schola sings in the stalls and are vested in cassock and surplice.
