Central alberta homeschool choir
Every fall, the Central Alberta Homeschool Choir meets for regular rehearsal in preparation for a concert weekend in December. In addition to all the musical learning that takes place, the choir is a place for homeschool students to meet and build friendships. The repertoire is typically sacred Christmas and worship music. The proceeds of the concerts, through free will offering, go to support the Christian Life Orphanage Centre, a home for former street boys, in Mwanza, Tanzania. Over the past several years, we have been joined by Rosedale Valley String Orchestra for these concerts. Concerts are held in three locations in central Alberta.

Junior Choir
The junior choir was established in 2013 for younger singers, ages 6 through 11. The musical focus for this group is pitch matching, two part singing, rhythm band and of course building friendships through music. No previous singing experience is necessary.
