Singing in the middle of the night; fleeting glimpses of dark figures in

experienced  by former students, security guards and building staff at 
St. Ann's Academy, one of Victoria's oldest heritage buildings and 
former girls school and convent.  Join St. Ann's Academy staff for a 90 
minute guided tour through the restored 1858 chapel and the historic

The tours will start at the chapel entrance at 6:30 pm and 8:30 pm Oct. 
22, 23, 29 and 30.  Tours will take place rain or shine so please dress 
for the outdoors.
