Concert Preparation
The École Poirier Choir is currently working on two numbers to perform at our concerts during the last week of school before the break. Poirier’s English concerts are on Wednesday, December 17th, French concerts are on Thursday, December 18th. On BOTH days there will be an afternoon concert at 1:30 pm, and an evening concert at 6:30pm. We are asking parents/guardians of choir members to please make an effort to bring your child to perform for both concerts. So, if your child is in the English program, bring them to school for that concert and for the start of the French concert (and vice-versa) so that we can have as many singers as possible performing on both nights. When you bring the students for the night they are not performing with their class, you are asked to stay for the first few minutes while they perform, and take your child home afterwards. Your support is greatly appreciated!
Ayre Manor Visit
The choir has been invited to sing at Ayre Manor on Tuesday, December 9th from 10:30 – 11:30 am. We will be travelling by school bus to and from Ayre Manor. The choir will perform our two concert songs and sing a variety of carols for the residents.
We ask that students wear a white top and dark pants or skirt for the performance. Special Christmas outfits are also fine. Santa hats would be great, as well, if you have one!
Permission slips will be coming home with choir members who have attended a minimum of three rehearsals prior to the trip. Please return the signed form to your child’s teacher by Friday, December 5th. Parent helpers are welcome and should meet in the music room at 10:15. Parents may ride the school bus if they choose, or meet us at Ayre Manor, located at 6744 Ayre Road, in Sooke. Parking is limited. Pre-schoolers are not permitted on the bus. We will return to school by approximately 11:40am.
