I'm glad you're interested in choir. We will have a meeting tomorrow, Thursday September 6 at 12:30 in the theatre (rm 60) where I will explain the events of the year and the audition process. I will then need about a week to meet all of the students in small groups (1-5) before classes will begin at 8:00 AM on Tuesday September 18. Please come by and say hello and ask any questions you have. See you soon. I look forward to making music with you!

At this point, our festival classes have not been cancelled due to weather. However, please do not take heroic measures to get to school! If you feel it is unsafe to get to school today, I will understand completely. We will gather with those who are able at Kelvin (Boys at 8, Girls at 9) and make a final call at that point. Please dress appropriately for the weather- boots and winter gear will be necessary to walk to the church! If you are planning on taking public transit, be prepared for longer wait times.
All 4 choirs are scheduled to participate in the festival on March 5 and 6 at Westminster United Church. Family and friends are invited to attend for a $5 entrance fee.
