Sister Condron was very strict to the girls in the choir. She told them to not use any make up until they arrived to/at the concert hall. She also thought that colored shoe laces were ridiculous. If the girls tried to argue against her she yelled ”be quiet” as loudly as she could.

Sister C was also very annoyed that the girls had more than one ear ring in each ear and considered it to be a hysterical fad. According to the rules of the school they were just allowed to have one ear ring per ear.

The tennis court was a special problem. That was where the girls got in touch with boys from a protestant school and therefore the girls were not allowed to be there.

The singing competition in Edinburgh was very important to Sister C. She was proud of her school and wanted her students to see themselves as the school's representatives/ambassadors.

Everybody counted on the girls in their senior year/graduation class would win. The girls themselves prioritized other things. Above all they wanted to have some fun.
