Our new Auckland Central (Owairaka) choir opens on this week: 2 May (7:15pm to 9:15pm (Tuesdays at Mt Albert Grammar)

this is our 6th All Together Now community choir - Auckland Central (Grey Lynn), Auckland Central (Owairaka) - Auckland East - Hobsonville - Tauranga - Taupo

NO AUDITIONS! - We believe that singing is a learned skill, that almost everyone can acquire with a little effort and some good teaching.

Lots of people have grown up believing that they can’t sing, because of experiences they’ve had or things that have been said to them. There are many reasons why this happens, but we have seen over and over again that with good guidance and the right environment, people can find their way into singing.

Our community choirs aim to create an environment where people aged 16+ can find support, skills and encouragement to learn to sing well. We don’t promise it will be effortless but we do promise to do everything we can to support our singers.

Our Choir Leaders are all music graduates, and are either professionals working in the choral and vocal fields, or have years of experience of singing in choirs.

Chrstmas light show

Murray from Henderson

Hi everyone.
I have put my Xmas lights up and am currently doing the final testing.
This is an animated show set to music, so drive by viewing is not the best.
There are speakers out so you will be able to hear the music that goes with the lights.
As last year, I will have my shows running from 1st of December until 31st of Dec inclusive.
As I have neighbours, Please respect them and their properties.

Show times will be,
Sunday to Thursday 9pm to 10pm.
Friday and Saturday 9pm to 10:30pm.

Last but not least the address.
28 Harrington Rd
Henderson.
