Family Sing for Fun - 10 July 2009
















Message from Jane:

Family Sing For Fun!

Morningsong Choir invites families, children and members
of the community to sing songs and rounds.

FREE
Friday July 10
10 am - 11.30 am
Bulimba Community and Senior Citizens' Hall
Corner Barramul St and Stuart St, off Oxford St, Bulimba
Children under 14 need to be accompanied by a grownup

We are doing this by request from some of the singers in
our group who have toddlers and school age children.
The songs we will be doing are simple enough for them
to join in - it won't be specifically kiddie-music. Little
children are usually thrilled to pieces to be singing in a
choir singing real music with adults, but I will adjust the
types of songs we sing as we go, depending on who comes.

For more info please ring Jane 3160 5757 or 0422 005 901

Visiting choir members - 17 July

From Jane:

On Friday 17 July, we will probably be hosting some
singers from a visiting choir from Newcastle.

They are here to visit and sing with Marina's choir
in East Brisbane, but they don't have much to do
during the day so Marina is going to suggest that
they toodle along the river on the River Cat and
jump off at Oxford Street to join us for a sing if
they wish.

New choir venue: from Friday 17 July

From Jane:

We meet at the Bulimba Uniting Church upstairs
hall until June 29.


From Friday July 17,
the first day of the school term 3, we will be
at the BULIMBA SENIOR CITIZENS HALL,
corner Stuart St and Barramul St, Bulimba.

I know that most of us have developed a great
affection for the little church hall and the
acoustics will be hard to beat, but this is
a more practical place overall. Same time,
same format with morning tea in the middle,
same restaurant down the street unless we
have another people's revolution.

Directions:

From East Brisbane, turn left from Wynnum Road
into Hawthorne Road. At the round-about, turn left
into Oxford St, travel for .5 km, turn left at
Stuart St, and the hall is at the end of the park.

From Redlands: turn right from Wynnum Road into
Riding Road. At the round-about, turn left into
Oxford St, travel for .5 km, turn left at Stuart St,
and the hall is at the end of the park.

From the Bulimba Ferry terminal: walk along
Oxford St until you come to the large park on
the right hand side. Walk diagonally across the
park until you come to the hall. Or walk along
Oxford St until you come to Stuart St, turn right
and continue for .2 km to the hall.

There is ample parking at the venue and in the street.

Finishing time change for Friday 12 June 2009

From Jane:

Rev. Bruce has requested that we finish this Friday
at 11 am instead of 11.30. He has a memorial service
to give and needs the space.

So....here is what we will do. We will sing straight through
without our normal cocktail hour, I mean, cuppa tea break,
and then finish at 11 am and go off for an early lunch.

I will reduce the fee for everyone and post it at the door.
For those who have paid in advance you will get credit
or a refund, whatever you prefer.

Sorry everyone.

Morningsong Sing for Life

Message from our singing leader, Jane:

Many thanks for all of your wonderful support today
for the Cancer Council's Biggest Morning Tea.

We raised a total of $274.60, which is pretty amazing
for our little group. $200 was donated online, and $74.60
(ably counted by the Chancellor of the Exchequor, Mal Lloyd
- thank you) was donated to the raffle.

Andrea won the raffle and turned around and gave it to
Fay Beatty for her meeting with a disability group!
