We're a vibrant, friendly singing group for all ability levels, with songs from around the world and from all eras. Sing for hope! Sing for power! Sing for life! Songs are taught by ear and gradually layered into sublime harmony. We've just returned from two thrilling candlelit concerts in Nelson involving 8 community choirs with 200+ voices from the Top of the South. There was a lot of laughter and fun preparing and participating. Now we're beginning a new bracket of rounds and songs, so it's a good time to join.

To help, New Zealand Red Cross provided $6.9 million to 179 Canterbury schools, designed to improve the well-being of children by funding a range of school programmes, events and initiatives.

Find out the difference this funding made to both the schools and students in the sixth of our 10 Good Stories videos. These videos show all the ways Red Cross helped one in five Cantabrians recover from the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, thanks to the generous donations of people from New Zealand and beyond.
