From the kids...

"It has been an amazing experience to be part of BVYC. I always look forward to choir practice and especially enjoy the chance to perform."

"I enjoy our sessions because they are fun"

"BVYC is my happy place"

"At first when I'm going to the rehearsals after a full day at school it often seems to me like it will be hard, but then I prove myself wrong because it's easier when I'm singing. I really enjoy the rehearsals, but enjoy the concerts when I can sing for family and friends."

"It is a lovely choir with lovely people and really fun songs that get people together to sing have fun and make new friends. I have been in BVYC for about 2 years and from the day that I arrived at the choir all of the people were and still are really nice to everyone, lots more people have joined and are now a great part of the choir. I really enjoy going to choir and is the highlight of my day and the songs keep you smiling for days."

"I like doing fun warm-ups and being able to choose the songs ourselves." 

From the parents... 

"Our daughter has always had a passion for Music and Singing. Singing is her 'happy place'. Beeston Voices Youth Choir are such a warm, friendly, welcoming group who have included her from her very first session."

"The Choir are inclusive and everyone gets along really well, like one big happy family. They encourage everyone to take part and they organise social events where the children can mix and make friends with each other. It has really helped our daughter to find new friends and build her confidence."

"Our daughter is more emotionally regulated once she has been to a Choir session. She masks a lot of her Autism at school, and this Choir is a place where she feels at her happiest. It is a place where she is free to release some of her daily stresses and be herself. She absolutely loves Beeston Voices Youth Choir."

"X has continued to enjoy his time at BVYC, especially the opportunity to do solos in concerts. Thanks for all the effort that goes into organising everything!"

"BVYC has brought X joy! The BVYC Team create such an inclusive and uplifting atmosphere, and I can tell that X feels valued. She is always beaming when she leaves rehearsals. Thankyou"

"I am really very pleasantly surprised by how quickly and easily X has been welcomed to and settled into BVYC. She was invited to BVYC by a new friend and current member and she has never looked back. I think this speaks volumes about how the group is run and the ethos you create. Thank you. So pleased at the possibility of her continuing in Year 9."
