Strange New People

Mr Chen is the person who wrote the words of the school song that you sing every morning - my guess is that some of you already know who he is especially since we did a choral exchange with Orchid Park Sec Sch. He's a very nice person, so do get to know him...

Mr Lai is an opera singer by training, graduated with a degree in music from London and will be returning to the UK on scholarship to do his masters in Opera studies. He's a great conductor to work with, and you'll be able to learn a lot from him, and perhaps pick up some new tips that can enhance what Mr Goh has already taught you.

Ms Koh - me lah! By now if dunno ought to get bearhugged by Yong Wei.

Regarding Attendance

Please ensure that all practices here, unless for life-or-death matters, is to be your priority for the next 2 weeks. Illnesses must be accompanied by an MC, and preferably an sms, and teachers have all been informed and are aware that the choir needs you to be there, so please come, because it really really REALLY REALLY REALLY MATTERS! YOU HAVE TO BE AT CHOIR PRACTICE... PLEEEEEASE!!!! :)

Choir Costume Fitting

I'm doing your fitting on the 28th July, so all choir members must be present. Please get your black shoes within these 2 weeks since the Great Singapore Sale is still on til the end of this weekend - HURRY! You'll want to get used to the shoes before wearing them for the performance. The rule basically, is that if your teachers can wear it to school, you can wear it for the performance.
