Know a kid/young person who loves singing?
Our growing choir turns five this year and is looking for new members to join the fun. We rehearse in Upper Hutt and work with children 4+ through to teens.There are no auditions to join the Major Minors and there are 5 year long scholarships currently available.
Our first rehearsal for 2017 is on Sunday 29 January at The Spot, in Upper Hutt.
Behind the scenes are qualified musicians who run the choir voluntarily and have lots of experience working with developing voices.
We also have an auditioned extension group for more musically experienced/capable singers - The Harmonic Minors. This group performs on their own, gives vocal assistance to the Major Minors and provides leadership opportunities working with the younger children. Auditions are being held on Sunday 29 January at 4pm after the Major Minors rehearsal
Outdoor performances are planned for local destinations this year and we will be defending the Challenge Cup in the under 18 Choir section of the Hutt Valley Performing Arts Competitions in July....again! Concerts are also planned locally and further afield.
For more details check out majorminors.instantencore.com , email us on hvkidschoir@gmail.com or give us a call.

BLACKHAWK CORGI RACES SUNDAY NOV 17
Who is the fastest Corgi in NZ?
This will be decided on Sunday, November 17 at Belmont Domain, Lower Hutt with racing starting at 2pm.
Thirty Pembroke and Cardigan Corgis will take to the 60 metre track for racing like no other.
Competition comes from as far away as Auckland and Whanganui and if you want to stretch it a little - Scotland - with the very recent arrival of Skye and his owners from the other side of the world.
The youngest to compete is 7 month old, Atlas whilst Bonnie at 14 years is part of the seniors (nine and over) event.
Spectators very welcome to this sixth annual championship organised by the Wellington Welsh Corgi Club.
