WELCOME:
We are very pleased that you have decided to participate in
our school choir this year. This
exciting group combines students from Grade 5-8 from Jack MacKenzie school.
We look forward to making some wonderful music under the
guidance of Ms Little,
Mme Cross, and Mrs.Hinz.
- Repertoire
and Concerts
This group will be singing music from both the
secular and sacred genres. We work
towards several performances including the Rotary Carol Festival and
participation in our school Christmas concert.
We may do caroling as well and plan on doing so at several Senior
residences as well as a mall. We usually
wrap up the season with a pizza and movie party.
- Concert
Dress
Students who participate in this group are asked to wear black pants or skirt with a long sleeved
white shirt or blouse and black
shoes for performances.
- Rehearsals
and Attendance
We have included a rehearsal schedule on the reverse side of
this note. We have very few rehearsals
and a lot to accomplish. We would
appreciate your support in encouraging your child to attend each and every
rehearsal time. Absences MUST be discussed with one of
the staff members involved in the choir.
If your child misses three
rehearsals without letting one of the coordinators know, they will be removed
from the group. The choir will not be meeting after the New Year.
Singing together builds community. Participation in this group will give your
child the opportunity to develop their talents and make new friends while having
a great time.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact either
school and speak to one of the teachers involved. Thank you.
Yours in music,
Ms Little Mme Cross Mrs. Hinz
