Important Venue Change for Tuesday!

Hi all,
We have a last minute change of venue for this week Feb 28.  We will be at Kamloops School of the Arts.  Please have your children enter through the entrance on Fraser St as we have done for the craft & choir days.  Thanks for your flexibility.
A reminder that we have High Country Festival on Tuesday March 7.  If we can meet at 11:10 in the Sagebrush Lobby please.  Parents are invited to stay and watch.  If you can please have a prompt pick up for 12:45 as we are teachers and need to return to our classrooms.
Additionally on Wednesday March 8 at 6 PM at the Full Gospel Tabernacle located on Tranquille Rd. we have Kamloops Festival of the Performing Arts.  This is a very formal performance and absolute silence is expected throughout the performance for the adjudicator to do their job.  Thanks for your understanding.

High Country Festival

On Tuesday March 7 the school district, High Country Music Festival is happening at the Sagebrush Theatre.  If you can please have your child to the Sagebrush Theatre for 11:10 and have pick up promptly at 12:45.

We are looking for a couple of parent volunteers to help with meeting the students as they are dropped off and ensuring that all are picked up again.  If you are able to help with this task, if you can please contact Jacquie ASAP jstrom@sd73.bc.ca

Thank you!

Thanks to those who were able to join us on Saturday for our craft and pizza day.  Kites were created (extras too for those who missed!), lots of singing happened and a few treats too!  A big thank you to the parents and children for leaving quickly and quietly at the end with the unexpected fire alarm.  It was a result of something that occurred in the gym.

Regular rehearsal at the Grube on Tuesday.
