It’s the end of term as we break up for summer (though there doesn’t seem to be any signs of summer yet!) and unfortunately, as always around this time of year, some members of the choir will be leaving us to embark on the next stage that is university, college, or starting their careers.
One such leaver is Esme, who is leaving to do a Masters degree. Esme has a few words to say about her 6 yeas (!) with the Fair City Singers…
Esme
Friendships
“I’ve loved my time with the Fair City Singers. Making new incredible friends and sharing amazing experiences with them, like going on tour to Barcelona, has to be my highlight.”
The benefits of choir
“The choir has given me so many opportunities to grow in confidence, not only in my singing, but as a person. I was a very quiet and shy 11 year old when I joined, and I attribute me coming out of my shell to singing with the choir massively. I’m really going to miss going in for a couple hours weekly and forgetting about anything thats been worrying me, it was a great escape during my exams. “
What next?
“After the summer, I’ll be attending Dundee University to do my Masters in Primary Education, I can’t wait to start this new chapter in my life and explore my passion for teaching.”
Will we see Esme at FCS again?
Since I’m so close to home, I plan on coming back to the occasional rehearsal! The Fair City Singers is a group of wonderful, talented people and feels like a family.
Why you should join the FCS!
“If you’re thinking about joining, I highly encourage you to! Aside from developing musical skills, you’ll grow in confidence massively and make lifelong friends.
Thank you again to Marjory and Stuart for everything. I’ve loved my six years with the choir.”
We wish Esme all the best in her Masters degree – we are sure she will flourish, and we look forward to welcoming her back to the odd rehearsal!
