Step 2Primary Proms

Prepare a video/DVD recording of a song of your choice performed by your school choir and submit this with your application form.

 

All nominating schools will be advised of the outcome of their application early in Term 1, 2008.

 

Upon acceptance to the Proms your school will need to pay a non-refundable participation fee of $25.00 per student. This participation fee will provide each participant with a choir repertoire book and high quality colour T-shirt to be worn in their performance. Participating schools will also receive a set of teaching CD's to assist them in learning the repertoire. Each successful choir will be offered two complimentary tickets for the performance in which they will participate. Principals from participating schools will also receive an invitation and two complimentary tickets to the concert in which their school will perform.
