The MLMC Music department is calling on all singers to join the College Choir or an A Cappella Ensemble. Rehearsals began this week. Both provide a wonderful opportunity to help our students develop one of their most precious gifts — the singing voice.
As parents (and teachers) we have a tremendous influence on our children, also on their decisions and what they tend to see as valuable and important. What we support, they are willing to pursue, and what we encourage and give priority to, they continue to be a part of — even when the lustre at times temporarily wears thin.
The Choir will participate in various College Liturgies, assemblies and concerts, as well as a number of external public events. The Choir is an excellent opportunity for your child to participate in a year-long program and sing with other students under professional guidance. We truly look forward to a great year of rewarding time, learning and spiritual fulfilment. We hope your child will be part of this Choir experience with us.
Choir rehearsals are held every Wednesday after school, from 3.30pm to 5.00pm, in the Music Department SLR1.1 with Ms Caroline Dickason.
The A Cappella Ensembles rehearse each week and have fun learning various songs. Rehearsals get students into a music-filled environment and research has shown that singing relieves stress. It's a calming, yet energising break. The Junior A Capella Ensemble is open to any Year 7 or Year 8 student. Rehearsals are held every Wednesday at lunchtime in the CEH Foyer (bring your lunch). Enrolment in the Senior A Capella Ensemble is by audition and is open to Years 9-12. Rehearsals are held every Tuesday at lunchtime in the CEH Foyer (bring your lunch).
