More info: This event is organised by some students from Arts and Business Management (Year 2), and they have invited several musical groups to perform for this event. They also mentioned that they would be holding auditions for this performance in early/ mid July.
Please head over to this form I WANT TO SIIIIIING to let us know if you are available for these upcoming performances so we can start working on which songs we want to perform! The songs we will put forth for each performance will depend on who is able to commit to them :)
In the meantime, keep your song requests coming and continue brainstorming for ideas and concepts for the song pieces!
Had the most amazing time with all of you during camp and I can't wait to see all of you again! :)

11:59 PM Hi singers!
Now for the ACA updates! This week, we'll be having two practices:
1. Wednesday (15 June '11), 4.30-9.30pm
- Learn parts for "No One", Alicia Keys
- Teach "No One" choreography
- Finish up "Peaches"
- Revise new songs (e.g. LTWYL, Tonight etc.)
2. Thursday (16 June '11), 4.30-9.30pm
- Audition leads for new songs
- Brainstorm for concepts for new songs
- Other fancy stuff!
I think I might be needing to use the Facebook group to share videos and stuff so please refer to that more often!
There will be no practices next week because of camp so the practices this week will be especially important!
That's all! Can't wait to see you all again! :)
Lalala,
Kelly
1:02 AM HEY GUYS! (This is a really long post. Please patient and read it through, I would really appreciate it.)
We will be having quite a few performances coming up for both Aca and Choir so please come for practices during the holidays! There will be increased practices and I know you guys want to enjoy your holidays (I do too!) but bear with us, I'll do my best to arrange the schedules such that we don't slack behind in practice and yet have time to enjoy the term break!
For choir, we'll be learning the dance steps to the Lion King Medley (seniors, please rejoice k people loved it) that Andrew and Anngie choreographed! Please note that we'll be having dance practices from 2pm - 5.30pm on the following days:
Tuesday, 14 June
Wednesday, 15 June
Friday, 17 June
And practice will be as usual from 6.30-8.30 on Tuesday and Friday. That would mean...
Tuesday, 14 June: 2.00pm - 8.30pm
Wednesday, 15 June: 2.00pm - 5.30pm (for people not in Aca)
Friday, 17 June: 2.00pm - 8.30pm
I know it seems like a lot but there will be breaks and time for lunch is included so it's not that bad, really! I hope all of you will be with us on this one: the satisfaction gained from learning the whole dance is quite big. The seniors cheered when we finally got everything put together. I also urge you to take the dance seriously and learn dilligently to facilitate ease of practices. There's a lot of people to coordinate and I'd really appreciate it if everyone could give their attention to whoever is trying to communicate something across. We can have fun together but please listen when you are supposed to.
Ok that being said, here are the upcoming performances that we've already have lined up!
A Cappella: Klavier Concert, National Day Concert, Poly Experience
Choir: Annual Appreciation Night, Band Concert, Poly Experience
*I've edited the bar on the left to show you the timeline of these events! :)*
Not forgetting our Music and Dance Festival Concert in October!
K so in short, COME FOR PRACTICES~ Kthxbye. :D
P.S. I am very excited for camp, are you? ;)
♥,
Pearlene
