Classes over Easter
Secret Singers classes are on as usual over the Easter period. The only change is that the Nelson class will be held at the Pavilion Cafe in Victoria Park, Carr Rd Nelson. This is just for Maundy Thursday as Christ Church is being used for church services that evening. New members are always welcome.
Well everyone, I finally bitten the bullet and created a facebook page for us. I hope that this will help us spread the word even further. You can find us by searching Secret Singers Community Choir. Please feel free to like the page and leave comments and pictures to show the world what a great time we have.
