Our choir sang beautifully in 3-part harmony at Remembrance Day!  Quite an accomplishment for an elementary school choir!  Special thanks to Isaac Derr, a very talented Gr. 8 student, for accompanying us on the piano!  After Remembrance Day, the choir started learning new songs for our December performances.  Here are the performance dates: Tuesday, December 5 from 7:15-8:00 p.m:  Rotary Carol Festival at Knox Metropolitan Church. Our performance time is actually 7:42, however students should plan to arrive at 7:15, wearing black bottoms and white tops.  This performance will be broadcast by Access Communications Cable Television. Tuesday, December 12 from 1:30-2:00 p.m:  Caroling at Mr. Mackenzie's home, College Park 1 Retirement Residence.  Students should wear black bottoms and Jack Mackenzie spirit wear.  If they do not have this, they can wear white tops.  See my next post for concert information.  Thanks:)
