Australian Girls Choir in Concert Invitation
Each year our most senior levels of the Australian Girls Choir; Prelude, Concert Level and Performing Choir present ‘Australian Girls Choir in Concert’ at the CGGS Hall at Canberra Girls Grammar School. These talented young performers will take the audience on a musical journey featuring varied and entertaining repertoire.
A focus on role modelling is at the heart of the AGC philosophy with many of our littlies dreaming of one day becoming a member of the Performing Choir. We are pleased to offer every junior chorister a special ticket price of $10 and hope that they will come along to see our ‘big girls’ in action. Please note that choristers attending the performance will not be supervised by AGC staff members and to this end we ask that an adult accompanies your daughter to the show.

We are very excited to be holding our Annual Concert at Llewellyn Hall at the Australian National University on Saturday November 29. There will be one concert held on this day and all choristers will be involved. The experience of performing in a professional theatre is an exciting and memorable occasion for our choristers and a special way to finish the AGC year.
All rehearsal and concert details including arrival times and concert tickets will be provided in September.
Annual Concert Production Rehearsal
All Levels
The Annual Concert Production Rehearsal is an opportunity for girls from all classes to come together to prepare the music and staging for their Annual Concert items. This rehearsal will run for approximately 1-3 hours depending on your daughter's level and will replace all Saturday classes on this weekend. Whilst we see this as a valuable chance for the girls to experience music making with the larger group, we also understand that attendance might not be possible for all families. Please note that girls who are unable to attend will not be disadvantaged and their tutor will ensure that they are adequately caught up in the week following the Production Rehearsal.
Saturday November 1 Piccolo, Vivo, Allegro, Avanti, Prelude and Concert Level
Sunday November 2 Performing Choir
All rehearsal details will be provided in September.

Performing Arts Holiday Program
Girls and boys in Kinder to Year 6
ASPA Education’s ‘Take the Stage’ Holiday Program brings the magic of the performing arts to the October school holidays! Through interactive, dynamic workshops in song, dance and drama, girls and boys in Kinder to Year 6 are invited to discover and develop their inner performer! All AGC choristers will receive a special discount and we encourage you to invite your friends and family to come along.
Click 'Register' below to find out more about the October Holiday Program.
This June, g-oz set an ambitious goal: to raise $100,000 for the 2025 ‘Voices for the Future’ Giving Circles campaign.
We’re excited to share that the target has been reached with a total of $102,725 raised – making it the third year in a row this goal has been surpassed! A heartfelt thank you to the AGC community for playing such a vital role in this achievement and supporting our charity partner.
As part of the campaign, 48 Giving Circle Coordinators formed their own fundraising ‘circles’, reaching out to their networks to raise funds and share the g-oz story. These Coordinators included our g-oz Ambassadors comprised of AGC senior choristers; parents; alumni; tutors; and even our inspiring 95-year-old founder, Judith Curphey OAM! This year saw a wide range of creative fundraising efforts, from bake sales and sausage sizzles to market stalls and public performances. A lot of time, effort and energy was put into these events, and they were all a roaring success!
The 22 nd g-oz Travel Program to Sydney will see 30 g-oz participants from the remote Australian communities of Halls Creek, Lockhart River, Kowanyama, and Bidyadanga participate in a week-long educational and cross-cultural program, concluding with a performance at the Sydney Opera House alongside the AGC at the Annual Concert.
Thank you once again to everyone who supported the 2025 ‘Voices for the Future’ Giving Circles Campaign, and a special thanks to those families who so generously choose to regularly donate to g-oz throughout the year.
