Choir at SCOTS PGC

Our College has a long tradition of choral participation. Boys and girls can choose to be part of performance groups in all year levels and these  are non-selective and encourage participation across all abilities. Whether they’re just getting started, or are looking to sharpen vocal skills, we focus on promoting an enjoyment of singing and performance.

Junior and Middle School Choir

Years 1-6 students are invited to join the Junior and Middle School Choir (JAM Choir) as a co-curricular activity. There is no audition process and all children are welcome.

Annual events include assemblies, chapel services, the Uniting Church Spring Fair and Speech Day performances. Here, the emphasis for children in JAM is on enjoyment, participation and confidence building.

Senior Girls’ Choir compete at regional eisteddfods when possible as well as participating at significant school-based events including the College’s ANZAC Day Commemoration and Speech Day.
