Step Up Singing

Find your voice and have fun singing with friends!

Step Up Singing is all about helping young people discover the joy of singing while building their musical skills in a friendly, supportive environment.

Children will join together as a choir and dive into music language through games and fun activities (no boring lectures here!). They’ll develop their musicianship skills and learn how to blend their voices with others while exploring all kinds of different songs. Plus, they’ll get chances to perform and show off their progress, building confidence and making friends along the way.

It’s the perfect next step for children who’ve enjoyed Foundation Singing, but also a brilliant starting point for beginners who want to explore singing or develop musical skills that will help them pick up an instrument later on.
