Junior Choir
Junior Choir is open to children between the ages of 8 and 14. The entry requirements are commitment to the choir and reasonably regular attendance. There is a very informal voice test.
We are excited to announce that we have re-convened a Junior Choir. Please do come and join us. Rehearsals will be at 9.45am each Sunday in the upper vestry taken by our assistant organist, Patricia.
Choristers will be expected to join in with the hymns in the service, to sing a line in the "Lamb of God" and the occasional anthem or on their own once the choir is established. They will go out to Junior Church when running after the first hymn, returning before the Eucharistic prayers.
Choristers will wear blue gowns and be awarded a surplice by the Vicar after 6 weeks. The choristers will be paid a fee per service
They all working on the Royal School of Church Music’s Voice for Life Scheme, which combines music theory with basic singing technique.
Junior Choir processes into church as part of the church choir and sits in the choir stalls immediately in front of the adults. The senior members of Junior Choir (the Head and Deputy Head Choristers) sit with the youngest children and help them to follow the service. Choristers are able to go out to Junior Church when it is running if they wish and return before the anthem.
