The NZ Choral Federation's iconic secondary schools choral festival The Big Sing has begun, with regional competitions taking place throughout the country over the next couple of weeks.
Rosalina Tuala Milo is the director of O Le Manu Ao, a recently-formed choir from Porirua College in Wellington.
She talks with David Morriss about how preparations for the event are going. It's important that the choir has fun, Rosalina says.
"We're not a big choir because it's only just started up... but we are big in heart!"
