5. Is Choir tiring and stressful?

Though rehearsals can be intensive before competitions and major performances, the support that we receive from our fellow CCA mates and teachers, as well as our love for singing keeps us going! It may be tiring, but we always feel a sense of accomplishment after a performance because all the hard work that we put in surely pays off in the end! This is part and parcel of CCA life in secondary school, regardless of the CCA you join. However, we hope to impart the spirit of resilience and teamwork on all of our members to be able to apply these values in daily life!
