"Please pass on my heartfelt thanks and congratulations to the choir for performing at the Community Housing Conference on Thursday. It was a fantastic performance and a truly moving experience. Many people have commented on how fantastic it was and how professionally everyone performed. It was a very fitting end to the conference and one that will be remembered for some time. I wish you and all in the choir all the best for the future and many happy gigs to come. Thank you." Andrew Meehan (conference coordinator). Senior Policy Officer, NSW Federation of Housing Associations

Boarding House residents join The Sydney Street Choir In April last year Boarding House Residents from the suburb of Marrickville
started jamming with the Sydney Street Choir once a week. The opportunity to be
'heard' and also 'valued' for their input doesn't come to our folk much,
so this is a tremendous new experience for them - and the benefits of it
extend into soooooooo many areas of their life. It's not just that their
self esteem is improving "a bit". Their esteem and confidence
have improved so much that we have seen complete transformations in some
of our clients. People who have been fairly quiet or introverted, or
those reliant on highly structured routines and schedules, or those with
the compulsion to always be active, to always be talking are ALL OF THEM
learning to become more adventurous, more flexible and more open to
silence and stillness. They are learning to LISTEN to each other and to
themselves. They are becoming more actively involved in the creation of
their own lives and they are loving it! It's a pleasure to watch and a
privilege to be involved with. |
