The Singapore Symphony Children's Choir was formed in June 2006, marking another milestone in the history of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. As Singapore's national orchestra, the SSO takes pride in nurturing young talents and helping them achieve their musical potential. 

Under the direction of Music Director of Singapore Symphony Chorus maestro Lim Yau, 113 children were selected from the initial auditions. Weekly training programmes began in July 2006 under voice specialists Quek Soo Hiang and Wong Lai Foon. After one year of training, choir members are set to perform choral masterworks with the SSO that require young voices. 

The Singapore Symphony Children's Choir made its debut performance in 2007 at the SSO's Christmas Concerts. Following that, the choir sang in SSO's one-night performance of Mahler's landmark Third Symphony on 26 January 2008 and the 2008 SSO Christmas Concert. This year, the choir sang in SSO's performance of Berlioz's La Damnation de Faust on 2 May 2009 at the Esplanade Concert Hall. 

The Children's Choir gave its inaugural concert at the Victoria Concert Hall on 20 April 2008.

The Singapore Symphony Children's Choir is proudly supported by the Florindon Foundation.
