CLC Choral Showcase 2025
On Monday evening, the College community came together to celebrate the Year 4–12 Choral Program. The concert featured a series of contrasting performances that captivated the audience from start to finish.
Our Junior Campus Performance Choir made their debut, and the grand finale of the evening showcased the CLC Combined Choir—a powerful ensemble made up of all our co-curricular choir students who rehearse outside of class time.
A huge thank you to our dedicated conductors and accompanist, Hayley, Neil, Kym, and Lorraine, for their tireless work in preparing these outstanding performances.
We also extend our sincere gratitude to all those who support our students—your encouragement and guidance make opportunities like this possible.
