Since starting in February 2019, the DSO Singing and Signing Choir has become a hugely popular activity for DSO families.
The choir is made up of children and adults with Down syndrome (from primary school age upwards) plus their siblings and parents. Singing popular, crowd pleasing songs, we also love to raise awareness and to show off our inspiring young people by performing at public events, for example, the Oxford Christmas Lights Festival or Thame Music Festival.
Rehearsals take place at Wheatley Park School (6th Form Centre) on Saturday afternoons during term-time. We welcome children and adults of all abilities. For further information about the choir,
“The DSO were the surprise hit of our festival last year. The joy on the faces of both the performers and the audience was a delight to see.” Johnnie Littler, organiser of Thame Music Festival"
"It's something to look forward to every week, to be with people who get it and understand. It's more than just a choir." Parent
