**Action required! Last chance to hold your child’s spot!
Final Call for continuing on in choir! Even if your child was going into Grade 5, they can still be in choir with Ms.Alpaugh and her team, as Ms.Alpaugh has taken over both choirs (see below on blog for more information!)
***Action required! Hold your child’s spot!
If you would like your child to have a spot in the upcoming amalgamated District Choir, the deadline to hold their spot is THIS FRIDAY (June 19th!). Otherwise their spot will be filled with new students waiting to audition. Simply film out the form below.

What about Covid—19? The Choir team is dedicated to the safety and health of all children. Even if we can’t sing together, we can still learn and team build in a safe way. We will proceed as best we can, under the direction of the School District and Provincial Health authority.
Can I sign up next year once? No, your child will have to go through the audition process again if they decide to rejoin next year. This year they are grandfathered in as they are already a part of the choir, but this expires Friday.
What if my child has friends that also want to join? That’s great! Auditions are open this year to anyone who wants to joins! All they need to do is complete the online first round audition application.

Dear current choir families,
Thank you for your flexibility in this unanticipated end of our Choir season! While the province looks at loosening Covid restrictions, we are putting a plan in place to resume our district Choirs once we are able. While we will certainly ensure that we meet health, safety, and social distance guidelines, we are so eager for the time to come when we can sing together again!
To wrap up our 2019/2020 Season we need to collect all uniforms. Please label a bag with your childs name and return your dress/shoes/dress pants/ shirts/ and music to the marked bin inside the main entrance at the Henry Grube Library starting Tuesday June 16th through to the 20th. It is extremely important that the choir receive these uniform pieces back this year. When you drop off your uniform pieces, there will be an envelope with your child’s name on it in the bin. This envelope contains their certificate for the year and their medal. Please do not enter the Henry Grube building if you are experiencing cold or flu symptoms. We are sad that we cannot have our usual year end concert and wrap up and we hope we can sing together again soon.
We are excited to share some news with you! The district choir programs are being connected for the upcoming 2020/2021 school year! Ms. Alpaugh will be leading our district choir program. Mrs. Froese, Mrs. Olsen, Mrs. Bouw and Kerry are all part of the choir team for September! This new program will ensure that all students' love of music and singing is fostered, while also providing opportunities to sing with and learn from each other!
KTCC and KTHC will be joined into one choral program, while still allowing each age group to have specialized instruction at their developmental level. KTCC members (grades 3 and 4) will rehearse from 3:30-4:30. KTHC members (grade 5-8) will rehearse from 4:00-5:00. The groups will rehearse together from 4:00-4:30. We are excited about the opportunity to merge all of the students’ talents to showcase this wonderful district program!
If your child is excited about this program, and is passionate about sharing their love of choral music and singing with our new, reimagined choir, they are welcome to join us!
Students in good standing who are currently in grades 3, 4 and 5 with either previous choirs are welcome to continue on as part of the new choir program next year. There will be no need to re-audition. Students in grade 6 and 7 this year are welcome to apply for one of the limited Student Leadership Roles.
https://forms.gle/gRJUhYuftW99
The opportunity to reserve your child’s spot in the new choir is open now until June 19. After June 19 we will begin filling choir spots from the community.
Musically yours,
The District Choir Team
*Please note: start up dates for the fall schedule will be communicated as we receive more information from the district regarding Covid-19 protocols.

Including no food ro drinks
Pick up will be 5:15ish...we really have no control over the adjudicator and how long he will take so this is just our best guess. Children will not be released until they tell either myself or Ms.Alphaugh that they see their parent in the pick up area. Please be prepared to keep your childrens outdoor shoes and coats with you, we will have limited space available to us.

Hello KTCC families! it was wonderful to be together again with your children! They didn't loose a beat over their winter break and got stuck right in with their new songs. For everyone that was away due to illness, thank you for NOT sharing your germs! Your child can bring their old music for this coming Tuesday to turn into Miss Alpaugh! They will then recieve their new music!
This weeks rehersal Jan 14th is at the Henry Grube center!
Feb 22nd 11am-2pm we are planning on doing another craft day! I'm looking for a couple of voluteers!
