April/May newsletter

It's amazing how quickly this year has gone and how much your children have grown together as a fantastic group of singers. We are in the final weeks of choir which includes rehearsals, school tours, final concert and a celebration day.

School tours - students will perform at four different schools within the school district to share their love of singing and spread the word about choir. Students will need to be at the Henry Grube Education Centre on Thursday April 30 and Friday May 1. Drop off is 8 am. Don’t forget to bring a good snack and a water bottle. Please have your child picked up by 12:00 noon as we need to be back at our respective schools for the afternoon to teach. Thanks for your understanding.  The children will need to come in concert attire -  black tights/skort for girls, pants for boys, red KTCC shirt, hair french braided, no make up or jewelry please.

Final concert - KTCC will run a technical rehearsal on Saturday May 2 at the Sagebrush Theatre at 1pm Please have your child come dressed in his/her uniform so we are able to take group photos this rehearsal/photo session will be compete at 2:30pm. Unfortunately parents are unable to sit in the theatre and watch during this rehearsal.

Please have your child back at the Sagebrush theatre at 6:00 for a 6:30 concert. The Sagebrush has plenty of seating so invite as many family and friends as you can!

Celebration day - To recognize all of our accomplishments as a choir we will be having a celebration day on Sunday May 3 at Beattie School of the Arts on McGill Rd at 1 pm. At this time we will have uniforms and music returned. Additionally we will share a small treat together. This will be our final meeting together.

Students who are in grade three are eligible to remain in KTCC for next year.

Students in grade four will have a group audition in April to be a part of Kamloops Thompson Honour Choir. This will be held on Tuesday April 28 at 3:30 at the Henry Grube Centre

Thank you to all of the families that made this year such a success. We appreciate all of your hard work in ensuring your child was able to attend rehearsals, concerts and special events. Additionally thanks to those who assisted us with fundraisers, craft days, and other events to ensure this year was fantastic.
