As seen above, you may have noticed that for 23,24,25dec, we have more than 2 sessions of caroling. For these 3 days, your SLs will then assign you to different slots, depending on your own availability.
So please, people, co-operate with us, &let us know of all your free times by Wed.
Your SLs will give you a template for you to tick at the slots where you are free.

Next, CAROLING ATTIRE
Guys : BLACK long-sleeved shirt, BLACK long pants, BLACK formal shoes (those worn during syf), BLACK socks.
The girls have 2 options for the attire.
1. BLACK DRESS (short/long-sleeved) with opaque BLACK stockings if your dresses do not cover your legs.
2. BLACK long-sleeved short, BLACK long pants.
either of these attires should be worn with BLACK covered heels.

Lastly, jst a few reminders.
1. Please bring the $12 for the concert tickets.
2. For those who have not collected your concert tickets subsidies, pls have at least 4 dollars with you to give Angie the change.
3. Those who have not paid ChoirFund $5, pls do so by WEDNESDAY

People, jst in case you guys have not noticed yet, Choir's attendance is not up to standard.
For those who are keen on quitting Choir jst bcos you think Choir's boring, Choir's taking up too much of your time, Choir's too tiring etcetc, PLEASE THINK FOR THE CHOIR AS A WHOLE.
Our seniors always say that for Choir, it's not jst one person who can make everything perfect.
Everyone has to do their part &contribute to make the Choir a better one.
If anyone decides to jst leave halfway &quit all because you think Choir sucks, pls think twice.
Think about all the efforts and time you've put into your CCA for the whole year. Think about the friends you've made through your CCA.
Please, just try to stay on for the remaining 6 months, thats all.

Our practices timings may kinda get longer for these few sessions but please bear with it.
With the upcoming carolings, i think it's reasonable that we have these practices.
So no matter how unwilling you are to attend Choir, please attend.

On a lighter note, Choir prac will start at 230pm and end at arnd 530pm on Wednesday, &there'll be no practices on Friday. :)
Faisal (Bass), Timothy(Tenor) and EkNgee(Alto) from WildEmpire are taking their time to help us with our sectionals on Wednesday, especially for TheChristmasSong.

Pls cooperate to make the Choir a better one. :)
