Junior Choir
All Saints' has a very active junior choir open to all children keen to be involved in the music of the church, and also a great way to form friendships.
New junior choristers begin with a probationary period during which they take part in Thursday rehearsals and Sunday services. Here they learn the basics of vocal techniques and choral singing.
After a few weeks, new choristers are formally admitted to the Choir. They are involved with the Royal School of Church Music 'Voice For Life' training scheme. Assessed at various stages, each singer is given music training, embracing a wide variety of different musical skills. Choristers have the opportunity to attend RSCM singing courses.
Junior choristers are taught how to read music, how to get the best out of their voices, and how to integrate with the group by becoming part of a team. Children take an interest in their own development, and eagerly anticipate the completion of each attainment level at which point there are four stages of medallion ribbon, light blue, dark blue, red and yellow. 
All junior choristers receive a payment at the end of each quarter based on the level of attendance at services and rehearsals. Occasionally, they may be invited to sing at weddings for which they are also paid.
