Ripon CathedralSchool Update Week ending Friday 2nd May 2025

Singing and Dancing! Singing and Dancing!

Cathedral Choir Auditions Cathedral Choir Auditions

Dr Krippner, Director of Music at the Cathedral, came into school on Wednesday for a worship focussed on choir singing. All the KS2 children had the opportunity to learn more the Cathedral's choir and to sing together. They practised scales which helped put them all at ease before being asked if they would like to audition for the choir. We are proud of all the children who gave the audition a go as it takes courage to stand up and sing in front of a hall full of people. The audience were also fantastic, applauding and encouraging everyone's singing. Well done to the successful children, and thank you to Dr Krippner for coming in to school.
