Congratulations, choir! :-)

We are all very proud of each and every one of you who participated in the SYF 2007 Central Judging for Choirs (Sec). You've done your best, and you well. SILVER is an excellent accomplishment for our choir, especially because we are one of the smallest choirs entering SYF this year, and because its our very 1st attempt at SYF.

SYF 2007 028
Our juniors: The Secondary Ones
Thank you for coming on board when we needed you the most, and for your steadfast dedication and commitment. In a mere 4 months, you've grown so much as choral singers, and hopefully found new friendships in the choir that will last your Secondary school life! We couldn't have done it without you!

SYF 2007 029
Our Sec 2 and 3 members
Thank you for your continued dedication. Those of you who were with us during the ABRSM choral singing examination would have experienced the choir's 2nd major performance in a matter of months. Despite busy schedules and other commitments, thank you for your dedication and for your loyalty. We look forward towards a couple or so more years with you.

SYF 2007 026
Our Graduating members: The Sec 4s!
Thank you for committing to the SYF project despite O level preparations and other commitments to the school. You are our pioneer batch, and we wish you the best for your future endeavours now that you are officially graduated from choir. Its been a long and exciting journey and we hope that you will support the choir in its future performances... as audience!

I'd also like to thank the other 2 teachers-in-charge for their continued support and dedication, and to the 'supporters' who followed us to VCH to cheer on the choir to give us moral support by being in the audience.

And a GIGANTIC THANK YOU to the choral directors, Mr Goh, Mr Chen and our favourite accompanist, Mr Joel for making all of this possible.

On the eve...

Dear choir,

I want to tell you how proud I am of you for having come this far in your preparations for our very first SYF. Everyone has worked hard, and has grown as a musician; our new Sec 1 members who have risen to the occasion, as well as the older pioneer members who have seen the choir since its beginning days, even before I got involved. Having been CCA teacher for the choir for more than 2 years, I am happy to be able to look back on the earlier days and be able to say for sure, that we have grown so much its unbelievable.

Your commitment for the next 2 practices, and your dedication and effort for the 17th April 2007 will be the thing that will see us through. Only YOU are able to make a difference, and we are all counting on you, and believe that you will be able to do it.

Try your absolute best, and sing with your heart, mind and soul!
