Carmel history and CD procedures

HISTORY

In 1957 the long held dream of the sisters of mercy to establish a catholic girls school on the noprth shore was realised. On land purchased by the Poynton Family, Sr. Mary Justine Gillies was given the mission of founding Carmel College initially with 15 students and no actual classrooms. Sr. Justine gathered dedicated teaching sisters and as the school grew, these sisters were joined by the first full time lay-teacher, Mrs. Verena Butler, in 1963

To add images you must click on import pictures and then the image will appear under where it says collection then drag the picture and put it in one of the timeline boxes below.

The timeline has 2 different views, the first one is where you edit your music video and images but the second one is where you enter all the pictures.

You can add sound by clicking on the import audio or music button above on the left hand side and then you can cut to where you want the music to stop.

For transitions and effects I will use the page curl up left because it looks more professional and it’s like flicking through a album yourself.

To enter a title you must click on Edit movie, make titles or credits and then title at the beginning. After that you may enter your title.
