BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND: KIDDI-OKE, FOR KIDS WHO SING

Announcement posted by Thurnham Teece 17 Oct 2019

In November 2016 Kiddi-Oke was launched at Oasis Shopping Village Palmerston. Due to the interest created, children and their parents have endorsed its return for a fourth year.

Kiddi-Oke 2019 will launch on Saturday 16th November with the first heat, followed by a second heat on Saturday 23rd November with the final being staged on Saturday 30th November.

Kiddi-Oke is an exciting karaoke style competition for kids between 5 and 16 years, designed to build their confidence and self-esteem, bring out their creative flair and give them the opportunity to perform in front of an audience in a safe happy fun environment. It’s also great entertainment for local shoppers at the Centre especially leading into the festive season.

Over the last three years, dozens of children have taken to the stage performing their renditions of well-known songs such as ‘Let it Go’, ‘Pokémon’ and ‘Do you want to build a snowman’, plus numerous renditions of Katy Perry’s ‘Firework’ and Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake it Off’.

This community event is an initiative of Oasis Shopping Village, who provide the infrastructure, prizes and certificates for each child. In launching the Kiddi-Oke 2019 competition, Helen Wilson, Centre Manager, commented.

“Over the last three years we have witnessed some thrilling performances but more importantly we’ve seen how these young people have gained experience, confidence and more importantly enjoyment from performing in Kidd-Oke.

Palmerston is a fast growing area of families with young children. At Oasis Shopping Village we enjoy engaging with these families and are delighted to host Kiddi-Oke 2019.”
