Hello KTCC!!

I had the honour of meeting all the KTCC students at our rehearsal yesterday and I am so excited to work with you all as your new manager. A huge thank you to Mrs. Bouw and Mrs. Alpaugh for all the work they have done to make this a smooth start to the year.

There will be some changes coming while we are transitioning so please ensure that you pay close attention to the blog for updates.

We are in need of volunteers!

We are looking for a group of parents who can help out with attendance. Every rehearsal, we will have a parent who ensures that each student signs in and grabs their name tags and then has parents sign the sign-out sheet at the end of rehearsal. This is a great position for parents who show up early at 3:45 and wait for their child in the lobby during rehearsal. If I could get 3 or 4 parents, we could do rotations throughout the month. 

We also need volunteers for our craft day on November 18th. Some positions that need to be filled are: picking up pizzas from Costco in the late morning and bringing them to us, helping to set up and monitor craft stations and snack stations, tidying the room throughout the morning.
Please let me know if you are available!

Rehearsal at KSA this week!

Just a reminder that our rehearsal is at Kamloops School of the Arts this week.  Please park on Fraser Street, come in the main entrance, and head directly right past the gym. Please note, if your child is going to be absent or late please send me an email at jbouwmeester@sd73.bc.ca, or I will be phoning to make sure they are safe.  See you at 3:45 at KSA on October 3rd!

Welcome Mrs. Noftall!

As of today, KTCC would like to formally welcome Mrs. Meghan Noftall as our manager!  Mrs. Noftall is currently the manager of the Honour choir and now will manage both choirs.  Mrs. Bouw will still be at the rehearsals doing drama with the students and handle PR, so she is still happy to answer all of your questions.  Mrs. Noftall comes to us with an extensive background in project management and event planning- we are very lucky to have her!

Sign Out Proceedures

Just a quick reminder that an adult needs to sign out your child each week in order for me to release them.  If your child is going home with a friend's parent, please make sure that parent knows their name and is prepared to sign them out.  Your child's safety is our utmost priority, so thank you for your help!

Upcoming Rehearsal at KSA

On October 3rd, the space at the Grube is being used so we will have our rehearsal at Kamloops School of the Arts.  KSA is in the old JP high school building. Please park on Fraser Street, and come in through the main entrance. We will be rehearsing in the Elementary Music room. Please head right once you enter the building, past the gymnasium and office. This week, on the 26th will be at the Henry Grube, but I like to let parents know ahead of time. See you at 3:45 on October 3rd at KSA!

Preferred Email Address Request

Good evening parents,
In order for us to convienintly reach you, please send a blank email to jbouwmeester@sd73.bc.ca from your preferred email address with your child's full name in the subject line.  This will help me keep track of parent emails.

That's it!  Thank you so much for your help!
