A Celebration of Song and Spirit: Thank You, St Joseph’s Choir! 

Last Wednesday evening 27 talented students from St Joseph’s proudly represented our school at Celebrate – Choirs at the Civic, a vibrant showcase of musical talent involving ten schools from across the region. With hearts full of joy and voices united in harmony, our students took to the stage and delivered a performance that was nothing short of extraordinary. 

Our choir sang three beautiful pieces: the rhythmic and spirited "Sansa Kroma", the nostalgic classic "This Old Man", and the uplifting anthem "Pilgrims of Hope (Singing Jubilee)". Each song was brought to life with energy, passion, and incredible teamwork, captivating the audience and truly showcasing the strength of our school community. 

Watching from the audience, Mrs Skinner, Mrs Temple, and Mrs McGinlay were moved and inspired by what they saw. They described feeling awe at the confidence, presence, and joy radiating from our students on stage. It was clear that these young performers had worked hard, supported each other, and poured their hearts into the music. 

Our choir didn’t just sing—they shone. Among nine other schools, our students stood out not only for their musical excellence but also for their school spirit, pride, and positive energy. They were wonderful ambassadors for St Joseph’s, and we could not be prouder of each and every one of them. 

To our choir: thank you. Thank you for your dedication, your courage, and your willingness to share your gifts with others. You reminded us all of the power of music to connect, uplift, and inspire. You’ve left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of hearing you sing. 

Let’s continue to raise our voices with confidence and joy—because when we sing together, we shine together. 

Bravo, St Joseph’s Choir!
