This year, Straits Choir will be running slightly differently. We are very excited to be taking part in Young Voices (www.youngvoices.co.uk), which is an initiative to provide singing opportunities to young people across the country as part of the world’s largest choir. On the 27th February 2025, we will be taking 60 Straits pupils from Years 4, 5 and 6 to Resorts World Arena in Birmingham to perform a variety of songs to thousands of audience members.
The event on the 27th February will require us to take a coach to the venue at 12pm to rehearse from 2pm-5pm. The performance takes place 7pm - 8:45pm, and we will then return by coach to arrive at school approximately 11pm. Tickets for the performance at Resorts World will be available to purchase through the Young Voices webpage (further information to follow).
Our Straits Choir will run on Thursdays 3:25pm-4:30pm, beginning on Thursday 12th September until the performance on the 27th February.
As previously stated, our choir places are strictly limited, so if you wish for your child to be a part of Straits Choir and part of this experience, we will require the reply slip returned and a £30 payment (to cover cost of child tickets, t-shirts and coach fee) paid via Scopay by Tuesday 10th September. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
If you have any questions, please feel free to find me - my classroom is in Year Six.
Kind regards,
Mr Jones
