Kids in Town 2018

The Kapa Haka and Legends Choir performed superbly last week at the Art Gallery, as part of the
Kids in Town programme run by the City Council.

It is great to see so many of our whanau come along to watch and many visitors to the city
stopping to take in the music. Jamison and Brierley played a lovely duet on the cello and viola,
Mya and Abi did a tap dance, and Eva and Samantha danced.

Christchurch Primary Schools' Music Festival

Our wonderful Legends Choir performed beautifully at this year's opening night at the Christchurch Primary Schools' Music Festival held at the Horncastle Arena. They looked great and certainly hit the high notes with some great songs like "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines" and "We are the Champions". Our Junior Representative Choir members sang like angels with "A Million Dreams" and "Orinoco Flow" (Mrs Peterson's favourite item of the night!).
It was great to see the parents and grandparents enjoying this memorable night of music.
You can hear the choir again at Kids In Town this Thursday (1 November) at the ChCh Art Gallery from 12.30pm - 1pm.

Final rehearsal in full swing

Singing is lots of fun

Thousands of ChCh children have experienced this event over the years. Next year we hope to be back in the Town Hall!

Year 4 Choir Visit George Manning Rest Home

The Year 4 choir had a wonderful visit to George Manning Rest Home on Thursday 5 July. The children were beautifully behaved and sang their hearts out, and they even had a standing ovation! Our friends at the Rest Home just loved the singing and smiles that the children brought to them. The crazy hair also brought a few smiles to their faces!

Our amazing "Kids For Kids" kids!

The Year 3 and 4 choir had a huge day on Wednesday rehearsing and performing at the Horncastle Arena with Jackie Clarke and Nathan King at the Kids For Kids concert in conjunction with World Vision. The children raised their voices to lift everyone's spirit's and to draw attention to some important global issues. We love being part of something that is bigger than just our school community so thank you Kids For Kids for having us on board this year.
