Star Community Choir

The Star Community Choir is a vibrant choral initiative of Star of the Sea College.

Join us each week to sing, harmonise, laugh and connect. Our welcoming community of singers embraces all abilities – whether you’re experienced or just starting out, you’ll find a supportive and uplifting environment.

*New members of the Star community are invited to come along and try your first session for free.

Led by Choral Director and past student Annemarie Sharry (1987), the choir offers a fun, inclusive and professional experience that brings out the best in every voice.

Whether you join for the full term or attend casually, you’ll be warmly welcomed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to bring each week?

  • Please bring your own display book for sheet music and water bottle for hydration

Do I need to have choral experience?

Do I need to know how to read music?

  • No. Most of the music will be learnt by ear.

Will I need to sing solo?
