Rehearsal reminder

VOCE will meet on Saturday morning 22nd Feb – if you would like to be one of the willing people who help with the smooth running of choir and plan for the year ahead, please let Lee or one of the other voce people know.

First Rehearsal this Tuesday

After a fabulous workshop on Saturday to start the year off, our first rehearsal is this coming Tuesday 4th Feb – same time, same place. 6.45pm for 7pm start. Don’t forget to register as you come through the door (a requirement of our hall hire); and current music will be available.

We encourage you to pay a Term or Yearly fee early in the year – this goes towards music purchasing; musical director and accompanist fees, and you may have noticed at the workshop, our recent upgrade of the piano. See website Fee tab.

Are you interested in helping with the organising of Choirbolical events? The next VOCE planning meeting is February 22nd, 9am at The Other Bird cafe on Margaret Street. VOCE is the group that helps our choir run smoothly. Let Wendy know if you intend coming along – all welcome.

Love to Read??? The next best thing to singing!! The books Gail and Stu brought along to the workshop were most welcome. A little book exchange box could be a new feature of our rehearsals. Bring a book along to swap before rehearsals.

Thankyou again to all who came along to make our workshop so enjoyable.
