Week 3 Music Notes

Another week (and somehow the end of September), and more improvement.  Your children have been working on three songs this week and some already have some movement involved with it too!  They are encouraged to keep practising the three songs they've been working on in choir

 - Ms. Alpaugh will be putting up some youtube videos onto the blog (just look under the Youtube tab) for your children to watch and sing along with to help with practising at home.  Just a note - these links cannot be played on iphones/ipads.

Thanks to those families who sent in their registration fees this week.  If you haven't returned your child's registration forms please do so ASAP, otherwise I will be sending home blank ones next week.  We need this info in case we need to get a hold of you.

Thank you for your support in choir

Enjoy your week!

Music Notes Week 2

Your children are sounding great - and it's only week two.

Ms Alpaugh will work to get some of their music posted on the blog for your children to listen to and follow along. Please note that iPhones and iPads will not allow these videos to be played as they need flash player.

Thanks to those who were able to pay fees today. I will hopefully get receipts issued to you for next week.

This week we sent home a t-shirt design for our choir. We are asking those who would like to participate to create a simplistic design using black and white only to represent our choir. Please ensure to include KTCC somewhere in the design.

Did you know that education in music enhances many aspects of a growing brain's development - it has been shown that on average, children who are exposed to a structured program of music study perform better in school and on tests than those children who do not.

Thanks for your continued support of music!

A great first day!

Thanks to all for a great first day! Your children did a wonderful job and we can't wait to see what wonderful music that they create this year together.

A reminder to please have a black binder, pencil and water bottle (all labeled) for next week.

Just a note when leaving the Henry grube - as traffic is so busy on tranquille you will likely find it easiest to turn right on beach avenue which then turns into Schubert dr. Turn left at fort avenue which will then give you the light at tranquille rd

Have an amazing week!

Choir Starts Soon!

We hope you are excited as we are for choir to begin again!  We will meet on Tuesday Sept 13 at 4 PM.  Your children will meet in the regular rehearsal space of Room 1A at the Henry Grube Centre (where they did their audition) and parents will meet in Room 6 at the Henry Grube Centre.  We will take care of registration for your child and fees, in addition to general information for the fall.  If you could please bring your child's care card number as well as their doctor's phone number.

Looking forward to seeing you!
