VOICE Senior Choir, CPS String Orchestra and HOTNOTES Orchestra

Congratulations on a successful start to the musical year!  String Orchestra was held on Tuesday, VOICE Senior choir commenced yesterday with a COVID split rolling roster, and we are looking forward to HOTNOTES Orchestra commencing next Friday in a similar split manner – strings versus the rest of ‘em!

Mrs Carter, our IMSS violin and viola teacher is directing Churchlands PS String Orchestra on Tuesdays before school.

VOICE Senior Choir is being held on Thursdays before school, with a full cohort of 60 students from Years 5 and 6.

Room 12 and 13 – 8.40- 9.10 am – arrive at 8.35 am sharp ready to roll in.

Don’t forget to organise your shirt from the uniform shop (Open Tuesdays before school) as well as your black pants and shoes.

And finally…. HOTNOTES Orchestra (42 members this year), is being held each Friday morning.

Members – please remember to organise your black pants, shoes and a long sleeve white button-up shirt.
