For children ages 4-18.
*Touring & Intermediate Choir (ages 8-18)
*Discovery Choir (ages 4-7)
Savannah Children’s Choir is one of the few organizations in greater Savannah where kids from different schools, different faiths, and different backgrounds can get to know one another and work together.
Every Monday after school, children ranging in age from 4-18 gather to rehearse, read music, work on their vocal intonation, and develop important life skills. In addition to two weekend retreats each semester, the singers ramp up their rehearsal schedule for special concerts and performances, devoting countless hours to the pursuit of perfection.
This is a great new, local opportunity for students to fulfill high school community service volunteer requirements, build their resumes, and gain valuable leadership experience @ the six CHS Savannah museums and historic sites: Savannah Children’s Museum, Georgia State Railroad Museum, Old Fort Jackson, Pin Point Heritage Museum, Savannah History Museum, Harper Fowlkes House.
That smile says it all — back in the pool and absolutely loving it! There’s nothing better than the splash of progress and the confidence that comes from every swim lesson at British Swim School of Savannah.
We’re so proud of our little Minnow — and clearly, he’s loving every second.
Happy swimmer, happy hearts. Let’s keep making waves!
