Choir<br />
The <strong>Mayflower</strong> Secondary School Choir is a group of vibrant,<br />
young people who share a common love in singing. The<br />
aims are to provide opportunities to engage the community<br />
through singing, to grow in the pursuit of choral excellence,<br />
and to deepen the bonds shared through music-making.<br />
Under the skilful baton of the choir conductor, Mrs Tay<br />
Sze Chen since 2014, the choir has grown from strength to<br />
strength. The Choir was awarded its second Certificate of<br />
Distinction this year in the SYF Arts Presentation.<br />
In November 2016, the Choir performed at the Esplanade<br />
Concert Hall in the Limelight Series. The Choir embarked<br />
on an overseas choral trip in Hong Kong, having a public<br />
performance and school choral exchanges with two<br />
schools.<br />
In January this year, the Choir was also invited to perform<br />
at the Guild in Concert @ National Gallery Singapore.<br />
In February, the choir watched a performance by the<br />
Philippines Madrigal Singers at the Esplanade.<br />
The annual Inauguration Concert was held in April to<br />
welcome the Secondary 1 new members and to provide<br />
a platform for them to perform,<br />
A rare opportunity came by our choir once again in June<br />
<strong>2017</strong>. The Singapore Teachers Academy for the Arts<br />
(STAR) invited our choir to do a professional recording<br />
for them.<br />
Apart from developing the vocal quality of our<br />
members, various activities were organised to provide<br />
opportunities for our members to develop friendship. In<br />
March, a Choir Camp was organised and in July, Bubble<br />
Soccer was organised to provide an opportunity for our<br />
members to be engaged in sport activities.<br />
With the combined effort of the student leaders,<br />
conductors and the teachers, the choir will continue to<br />
grow as a family that sings together<br />
