dozens of eager singers auditioning and flooding the
choir with new members and enthusiasm.
While the standard of music, and the passionate involvement in music at Victoria Park continues to

Park choir will continue to serenade and stun audiences with singing of the very highest quality.

Rensburg were varied, often challenging and naturally spectacular. With a fresh repertoire, the choir
entered the Grahamstown Eisteddfod and the annual PE Kunsfees, hosted at Grey High School, with
great success, earning gold and double gold awards
respectively. The choir also captivated VP pupils
with a widely popular performance at the school’s
own Arts Festival, held in May.

support of the school’s musical voices. Sadly, the
choir once again bids farewell to its Matric mem-
