In boarding school. We all had shared responsibilities in the school, that were rotated every few weeks. I was given after dinner chores once, putting dirty dishes on the conveyor belt. The nun in charge of our “crew” was Sister Irene.

We sang this to her every night after we finished up. Fond memories.
