Young Voices

We have been allocated a new date for the choir Young Voices singing event in Sheffield which is Thursday 28^th April 2022.  Choir members have received a letter about this, and we still have some spaces available on the bus if any more choir members would like to attend this event. This is a wonderful opportunity for our children to experience singing in a large arena. Please contact the office for further information.
