Welcome to the webpage for the St John the Baptist Church Choir! We are a friendly and enthusiastic team who enjoy singing both traditional and modern church hymns. We warmly welcome all newcomers to join us at choir practice and Sunday services… so don’t be shy, give us a try!
You will see from our photo that the Choir caters for a wide age range and encourages young members of our congregation to join. We are able to ensure our young members are still able to participate within both the Choir and their Sunday School or Pathfinder group during our Sunday services. Our choir is lead by Choir Director, Tom Shorter, and is tunefully supported by our highly experienced and talented organist, Mrs Irene Simmons. We are fun and friendly! We often get together after singing for drinks, meet up for meals and occasionally sing ‘away’ gigs (e.g. at RSCM festivals).
The Choir supports our 10am Sunday service plus additional special services as required. Choir practice sessions are 6.45pm ‘til 8.15pm on Thursday evenings.

Congratulations to Polly Forbes and Lucy Stephens for achieving their Light Blue RSCM ribbons. They have both worked well at being competent and keen members of the choir and they have also had to work hard at completing their theory books.
This term we have also awarded the Jadie Bunn Chorister Award to Polly Forbes for consistent effort.
Well done to both girls! |
