Schedule

When students join Wolfgang Children's Choir (WCC), we encourage them to participate long term. Since WCC is an ensemble that continues to grow and develop overtime, it’s ideal to have long term members to maintain a constant standard of excellence and musicality.

​There are two terms per year, plus summer camps.  All are o
pen to returning and new members. 
  • TERM 1: Fall/ Winter (15 sessions: Sept 21 - Jan 17)
  • TERM 2: Winter/ Spring (15 sessions: Feb 15 - June 5)
  • SUMMER CAMP (July- Aug) - The Summer Camp page will be available in Spring for details/ registration. 
Please note:
​For everyone's best interest, after the 
third week of the term, new students will no longer be accepted and must wait until the following term to enroll. ​
HOLIDAYS
There are no classes held on school or national holidays, such as Thanksgiving week, Christmas break, Spring Break, etc.
