Please note that applications for places in representative groups close on Thursday April 13th.

The Christchurch Schools’ Music Festival representative Groups consist of an auditioned choir, concert band and orchestra and is a great experience for advancing players. These groups perform every night of the Festival from 25-27 October and have extra rehearsals in term 3 and at the start of the September holidays. 

Please note that the last night of the festival is the start of the Chisnallwood Jubilee weekend.

Our school choir will be singing on one of the nights of this festival.

The theme of this year’s Festival is “Whatever the Weather”.

The details about representative groups and the application form can be found here at the musicfestival.school.nz website. You will need a special school code to apply and you can get this from Mrs Bell.
