At St Mary’s School in Chipping Norton we have many extra activity clubs after school and at lunch time. Two of these are the singing club and musical theatre where children are encouraged to pursue their enjoyment of singing. Many children are in both clubs. The singing club are used to singing around the town at Christmas events and local care homes and enjoy sharing their joy of singing with you all at the town festival. We hope you enjoy our songs!

Chipping Norton Choral Society was founded in 1872 and  exists to provide amateur singers with the chance to sing varied and exciting choral works together in a supportive and friendly environment.  This last season has included classical and jazz works, working with professional musicians. As a new initiative for the Choral Society, we launched the Cotswold Youth Choir in January 2024 for children aged 10-18 to  introduce younger members of our community to choral singing. CYC aims to provide a high-quality, uniquely-tailored musical education which supports provisions in schools, in an inclusive, warm and welcoming space for young people to find themselves and flourish.  Rehearsals for both choirs take place in Chipping Norton’s Town Hall on a Wednesday, and we are now taking a summer break until September. New members are always very welcome for both choirs, for more information about joining us and our future events, please go to cncs.org.uk or cotswoldyouthchoir.org.uk
