Saturday 1st March
The choir attended the annual celebration for St David’s Day at St Michael’s Church.
Other participants were Abertillery Orpheus Male Voice Choir, Ebbw Fach Choir and Abertillery Town Band. The audience also enjoyed the solo voice of Jordan Mills who is a young, local singer. He delighted everyone with the rendition of a Welsh song and he performed it with confidence and showed considerable talent.
The audience joined in with singing well known Welsh hymns, supported by strong accompaniment from the band.

The choir joined in with the Centenary Celebration of Six Bells Park by taking to the stage and singing a range of upbeat songs from our repertoire.
The event was extremely well organised and attracted a large number of visitors.
Fortunately, the weather was warm and sunny which enhanced the day. It was very pleasing to see so many people of all ages supporting the celebration.
There was a wide range of activities and entertainment was provided by several musical organisations. The day was a great success and proved to be a worthy tribute to a well loved park.
Monday 12th May
The choir was asked to attend the funeral of Mrs Anne Weaver who had recently passed away. Anne had been a chorister for forty years and proved to be an exceedingly loyal and talented lady. She worked hard to help with fundraising and was an invaluable member of the committee, ensuring the smooth running of the choir. Anne was always ready to help and she supported all choir activities.
It was an honour to be present at Anne’s funeral and she will be remembered with respect and great fondness.
