This event is held on Dharawal Land. I acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded, and the land we thrive and play on is inextricably bound to the songs and stories of First Nations peoples. Always was always will be Aboriginal land.

I've always sung, for as long as I can remember. The endorphins of singing have always surged through my blood, and I reckon it sucks that there aren’t more spaces to gently facilitate the discovery of singing together. It's on the back of this drive to sing together that Slapdash Choir was cobbled togetehr, in the pursuit of simplicity, community, participation, and harmony.

The songs are simple and easy to learn, no reading sheet music or any of that nonsense, just repeat after me! All abilities are welcomed (especially if you've never sung before!) and there is not audition process, just come along and follow my lead. Some world music from various traditions, pop bangers and cute little things that we can learn in just a few minutes!

WHEN IS IT? Slapdash runs on a term basis. These have nothing to do with school terms, they're just blocks that I've made up on my calendar. Each term ~usually`~ runs for 6 weeks (this one is 4!) with a little break in between each term. Here are the dates for Term 6 2026:
Monday nights, 7:00pm-8:30pm
9th November - 30th November

WHERE IS IT? We are graciously hosted in the Excelsior Hall at Thirroul Library and Community Centre, plenty of parking and close to the station, so you can easily catch the train.
TICKETS? Term tickets ($50 for 4 weeks) are the cheapest and easiest way to commit to coming to most of the sessions, but you can always rock up casually and pay $20 per session on the night (either cash or online on your phone). For those in a financially tough spot, there is an option to pay what you feel. I'd rather have you singing with us than not coming because funds are too tight!

A note on attendance: Anyone and everyone are more than welcome to just drop in once, or come and go as your schedule allows! Buuuut, committing to a full term is encouraged for multiple reasons! It can be hard to commit to things in our busy lives, and I know as well as anyone the feeling of 'ugh I'm not at my best this week, work/life has been effed, I'm gonna just stay in'.

But the power of self-parenting is real, a firm voice of 'you said how much you want to do after-school soccer, now you are a part of a team and should honour that!' The sense of achievement and community only grows the more and more regularly you come, fostering connections by showing up. I invite you to take the plunge for the full term, and come along even if you're not at 100%, you can just exist as your 20% self and soak up the energy of the collective!

Any questions, shoot me a message. Be brave and take a leap, there is so much love and energy to tap into when you take a deep breath and sing!

Testimonials from previous Slapdashers :P

"I had the best time! So fun and way more chill than I was expecting - Elliot is a great teacher and the atmosphere is very supportive if you’re nervous about singing or messing up"

"When all the different song parts come together and it sounds great and everyone starts smiling - it’s so cute!"

"Choir filled a huge hole in my life. It helped me realise again how singing brings such joy and that doing these hobbies can be easy and social"

"Slapdash choir is the perfect blend of fun, camaraderie and feeling impressed with how good we sound with very little training! It feels really satisfying to learn new parts, pick up songs in a really upbeat and hilarious environment - plus I have made some new friends. It's the perfect mid week pick me up and connection point. Elliot is really encouraging, all my singing fears are gone. Can't wait for next term!"
