Christchurch Choir 
Our school is part of the Greymouth Combined Choir and we sing in the Christchurch  Music Festival.
 
Because we are a small school we are only allowed to send 6 students which means we have to audition and commit to practice in our own time.
Unfortunately the two boys we trained with us weren't able to go. We particularly felt sorry for one who hurt himself at the last minute and had to stay home. Its an amazing experience.
We sang in the Horncastle Arena. We left school on the Thursday morning and travelled to Christchurch. That night we went out for a Buffet meal and then Ten Pin Bowling. The next day we practised until lunch time, we were then supposed to go to the Margret Mahey Playground but it was closed. We decided to go shopping at Northlands Mall for a while and then go back to the motorcamp for a swim. After the show we went to Dominos with Runanga School and got pizza for supper. On Saturday we travelled home

    It's a shame that your 2 boys could not go to the Christchurch Music Festival. I have a question to: How did you go in The Festival? I think that you have made a great post about your trip to Christchurch, Well Done!

    I was in the Choir too! What was your favorite part of the trip? Mine (Apart from Singing) was the bowling. I liked that you included lots of photos to celebrate the music festival.
