'BE A CHORISTER FOR AN AFTERNOON' EVENT

Our next 'Be a Chorister for an Afternoon' event will take place on Saturday 3rd May.

Our choral open afternoon is a fun opportunity to find out more about the Cathedral Choir, learn some new music and for your son to see if he might like to be a chorister.

Choristers rehearse every weekday morning and sing Evensong in the Cathedral six times a week. This busy schedule develops their musical skills and nurtures key skills such as leadership, teamwork and time management. Boys selected for choristerships have 60% of their school fees at CCCS paid by the Cathedral for the duration of their time as a Chorister. To register your son for this event, please complete the form below.

Further information on choristerships is available here.
