One again the Music Department
are holding their annual Young
Singer
Competition . This
competition is for all year groups
and auditions have already been
held . To audition pupils that had
already signed up sent in a oneminute
singing
video
through
Microsoft Teams .
The judges for the first round will be all of the music teachers , they are going to choose 6 junior pupils and 6 senior pupils .
For round two the plan originally was to perform in the assembly hall with a live stream to classes so pupils could all watch but with Covid restrictions singing is still not allowed . They are not completely decided yet but the plan would either be performing outside with a microphone on a live stream or sending in a video recorded at home which would be uploaded to the YouTube channel .
For picking winners there are some mystery judges from outside of the school and they will decide on winners over Zoom call . There will be one junior winner and runner up and one senior winner and runner up .
Winners
will
receive
a
prize ( medal / trophy ). There will also
be participation
certificates
for
everyone .
