On Wednesday, Nov. 20, students from nine elementary schools will perform as part of the newly formed Barrie Youth Honour Choir, along with the choirs of Bear Creek Secondary School and Eastview Secondary School.
The choirs will perform three shows – two for Grade 8 students from the Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB), and one for family, friends and community members.
Members of the SCDSB community are invited to enjoy the concert at 7 p.m. at the Collier Street United Church.
The Barrie Youth Honour Choir was formed under the direction of Rachael Clark, choral director at Bear Creek Secondary School, and Dave Stewart, choral director at Eastview Secondary School.
