JUNIOR CHOIR
The Junior Choir will start practising very soon. Any child in year 1 and 2 is welcome to join. Rehearsals will take place during lunch times. day to be confirmed. They will be preparing for the Christmas Nativity held at St John's Cathedral in December where they traditionally sing 2 or 3 carols and are dressed as little angels.
SENIOR CHOIR
The senior choir (yrs 3-6) have already started practising as we have 3 Christmas concerts coming up. This is a large (and in my opinion rather wonderful) group but I would suggest it is too late for newcomers to join now as we are well in to our repertoire. Thanks to those who have been regularly attending and commitment from now on is strongly encouraged.
MUSICIANS
A few talented children have started working on the accompaniments to the carols and may even get a little 'minstrel slot' at the Nativity if it works out.
NATIVITY ACTORS
We have already put together our team of actors who will help to tell the story of the Nativity at St John's Cathedral. There aren't many lines to learn but as they say in the trade, "There are no small parts, only small actors"
PARENT VOLUNTEERS
If any parents would be interested in helping out with costumes, practising lines etc, please e-mail me as I would appreciate an extra hand or two .
Many thanks
