A SINGING school is not letting the coronavirus silence its voices.
The Janice Thompson Performance Trust is continuing to support students by offering singing lessons over Zoom every Tuesday from 5.30pm.
Each week small groups of singers aged from three-year-old beginners to17- year-old advanced students are led by team teachers Jessie Thompson, Flora Wilkins, Andrea Lockwood, Alicia Rendle and Shelley Morgan.
Online projects have included a video presentation of Over the Rainbow and Somewhere by members of the Concert Choir, and have been released on the schools Facebook page JTPTrust.
JTPTrust director Janice Thompson said: “We have been determined that Covid-19 will not interrupt the young singers’ vocal enjoyment and development, we have simply moved our exam preparation and performances online!’
Anyone wanting to join in online, is invited to email info@jtptrust.org
