Upcoming events and updates for CCA Choir

Dear choir members and parents,

Here are a few updates for those in Choir CCA. There are a few important things to note for the next few weeks before school closes.

1) Performance for our VVIP
Your child has been briefed about this at choir today but I will not be obliged to disclose any more information on this platform until it is confirmed.
The choir is on standby, having to perform 2 songs for the event which will last only all of 1/2 hour. It is scheduled for 7 November, Saturday. 
At the moment, we have no concrete information about the timing. Rest assured that it is indeed a rare honour to be singing at this event so I ask for your patience and understanding.

2) Performance at Prize Giving Ceremony, 19 November, Thursday @ 8.00 am
We just received information about this event today during choir rehearsal. As such, we have already started on our performance piece today. 

3) Extra rehearsals in preparation for SYF Choral Presentation 2016
We will be holding extra rehearsals on 23 and 24 November, Monday and Tuesday, from 9.30 am to 12.30 pm in Music Room 2. 
Your child will be given a copy of the set piece (original) tomorrow, 30 October, Friday. Should he/she quit unexpectedly before the competition, he/she will be expected to return the score to the school. Should your child lose his/her copy, $5.00 will be charged for a new copy, subject to availability. Please remind your child to be responsible for his/her score.
The SYF Choral Presentation will be held between 11-19 April at SOTA Concert Hall.

Just to give everyone a heads up, the first 3 days of the March holidays will be set aside for COMPULSORY rehearsals for this competition. Please pencil in 14, 15 and 16 March into your calendars. 

We are also in need of parent volunteers to help and assist us with hair, make-up, catering and chaperone duties. If you can lend us a hand, please email me directly at joyce_ang_bee_gaik@nyps.edu.sg

Thank you for your kind attention.
