Australia Day 2013

The chorus was on stage to present three songs as part of the Citizenship Ceremony
 in the town hall in Wollongong on Australia Day.
We sang - My Country, Shelter and I am Australian.
Here we are warming up in the dressing room before the performance.
The Australia Day Ambassador for Wollongong this year was ex Hawks player Matt Campbell.


Words from Jan:
Singing on Australia Day is such a good way to start the year!
Especially the performance at the Citizenship Ceremony - it was wonderful to
have 40 chorus members on stage at the Town Hall and our songs were very well received.
Thanks to Helen Fahy who did such a good job introducing each song and to Sam
for her lovely solo part in I Am Australian.
We had so many people coming up to us at the end to tell us how much they enjoyed our performance and we may even have some visitors along to our rehearsal as a result.
The afternoon performance also went very well, in spite of the humid conditions,
 with 37 chorus members entertaining the “crowds” with a variety of songs.
Thanks again to Helen and Sam.
