CCC CHAPEL CHOIR (Kindergarten through 5th grade!)

Singing material is generally aimed at children aged 7 to 10 or 11, but don’t let that stop you from bringing younger children who love to sing.  Listening CDs are provided for children to practice at home – they are not expected to read music, and if they are just learning to read words, they can learn them from the CDs and word sheets with your help.
The Choir for all kids who just love to sing…
if your child loves to sing, bring them!!!
