Breaking News...

Mrs Wood and I went to the teacher training day on Friday so we have lots of tips to share at our rehearsals.

Please make sure you practice the songs by using the myclassmate website, you have all received a log in but if anyone is struggling to access it please let me know.

Thanks

Welcome to the Young Voices Choir page. I am Mrs Hartley and would like to tell you a little about our choir.

We meet every Tuesday in the hall from 3.30 - 4.30 where the children (and adults) practise the songs and dance moves ready to perform in the arena on concert day.

On the day of the concert we leave school after lunch and travel to Manchester by coach. Once at the arena it's rehearsal time with 6500 other children and our guest stars before breaking for tea.

The audience can arrive from 6pm and then it's lights down and the largest school choir in the world begins. It is a truly amazing experience for both children and staff and I hope the audience.

All too soon the concert is over and we return to school tired but usually very happy.

Then the wait for next years music pack begins...

I know some of you will have concerns about us performing at the Manchester Arena in light of what happened there earlier this year. I received this letter from Young Voices and thought I would share it with you. 

• Enhanced security and bag checks so please advise parents to arrive as early as possible to avoid delays on entry to the arena.
• Consultation with Greater Manchester Police, British Transport Police and Manchester City Council
• Reduced running time for the event to reduce congestion on departure
• Increased screening of accreditation for Teachers, Assistants and Chaperones on arrival.
• Tickets to the event will only be available via the participating schools

Below are the youtube videos of the songs. Africa is missing but as soon as it becomes available I will add it. Happy singing. :)

Just to let you know. We have registered for Young Voices 2018. It appears that our concert will be on Thursday 25th January 2018.

I am so proud of all the children. They performed brilliantly at the concert and they all seemed to have a fabulous time.

I have registered our interest for the next concert so roll on June when I will get the 2018 music pack.

Thank you to all the parents for your continued support it is appreciated.

Rehearsals will be starting on Tuesday 20th September. Remember to return your permission slip. Have a look at the songs for 2017 below. :)
