Choir Fun Facts
Adapted Choir Book
The choir uses adapted music books that combine words and pictorial symbols (widgets) rather than musical notation. This makes the singing experience accessible to members of all reading abilities.
Practice Makes Perfect
From September to December, choir members diligently build and refine their skills. They put in hours of dedicated practice, both at home and in person, all in preparation for the big day. Come watch their dedication and talent shine on stage!
Sense of Community
The choir’s focus is on promoting a sense of social belonging and increasing self-esteem. We do this by building community together, striving towards a common goal and celebrating each other.
Musical Stylings
During the performance, you will also see the work and musical stylings of our choir conductors
Ana Santo (Behaviour Analyst) and Gwenna Fairchild-Taylor, along with guitarist Shany Biran
(Behaviour Analyst) and pianist Jennifer Wakefield.
