School Tours

Your children did such a magnificent job today representing the choir in each of the schools today.  Each school was impressed with the caliber of music that your children created.  We will do it again tomorrow - drop off at the Henry Grube at 8:15.  Pick up will likely be closer to noon!  Please come with water, jazz shoes (in a backpack!), snack and wearing black pants with the yellow KTCC shirts!

A reminder that next Tuesday our rehearsal is held at Kamloops School of the Arts - located at the corner of 9th Ave & Fraser St.

We have our final concert on Sunday May 7 at the Sagebrush Theatre which will include a dress rehearsal in the afternoon.  Times still to be confirmed!

If you haven't already, please return your intentions for next year.  Any student who is currently enrolled in choir will have their spot secured for next year IF they indicate before choir wrap up on May 9.  We will be starting  the audition process for next year at the end of May.

Reminder!

A reminder that choir is at Kamloops Alliance Church this week - located across the street from the Grube.  Also don't forget about the permission slips that went home last week!

Scheduling Update

Your children worked extremely hard yesterday - they have shown some amazing improvement since you last heard them at Kamloops Festival of the Performing Arts.

On Tuesday, permission forms were sent home for school tours happening on April 20 & 21.  We are asking for your children to come dressed in their yellow KTCC shirts and to be wearing black pants with their black jazz shoes.  Also each day if you can please drop them off at the Henry Grube for 8:15 and have them picked up again for 12:15.  If your child attends one of the schools that we are visiting South Sahali, Rayleigh, Bert Edwards & Kay Bingham - we can pick up/ drop off your child at these locations.  HOWEVER, please inform Jacquie about this prior to school tours so that she is aware of where students are going to be!  Thank you!

Tuesday April 18 - our usual at the Henry Grube

Thursday April 20 & Friday April 21 - school tours in the morning

Choir's back!

We hope everyone had a restful Spring Break.  We are back at it tomorrow with our regular rehearsal time and place.  In case you didn't hear, our choir was recommended to compete at the provincial festival level.  We are so pleased with how well your children performed.  Before you start packing your bags, the festival is located in Kamloops this year AND as we were recorded, we do not need to perform again.

However, later this month - April 20 & 21, we will be at school tours in the morning of each day.  Details will be coming home shortly.

A job well done!

A fantastic job done by all at our two festivals this week. Thanks to families for making arrangements to ensure your child could be there.

We do have choir this week back at the Henry Grube Centre prior to breaking for Spring Break.

See everyone on Tuesday!
