Young voices hit the high notes in SCDL Singing Competition

Nikki Hall —

A singing contest aimed to encourage the development of young voices in South Canterbury.

During the July school holidays some of our talented Roncalli students competed in the South Canterbury Drama League singing competition held at the Timaru Playhouse. Roncalli College students placed in many different categories throughout the day. 

     “ This was my first singing competition and it is amazing how much I have grown in confidence from that one competition”                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Olivia-Rose Holgate
