Students in Years 2 to 6 who attended and participated in trial rehearsals for either the Junior or Senior Choir and expressed an interest in joining the 2025 choral program have been distributed a paper copy of the parent/carer information letter outlining the finer details of participating in this program. A reminder that:
- Junior Choir – Open to students in Years 2 and 3 (boys and girls)

To confirm participation in these programs, Letters of Participation/Choral Contracts were to be returned to the school administration office by the close of business on Friday 21 March 2025. Thank you to families who have returned the required documentation for your child/ren to participate in these programs.
Payment for participation in the 2025 choral program is not required at this stage (as advised in the parent/carer information letter). Upon the letter of participation/choral contracts being received by the school administration office, invoices will be raised and emailed to participating families.
