Welcome me to a new year of singing! The École Poirier choir is heading into its third week of rehearsals already! Mme Arts and Mme Beattie are excited to have over 60 eager singers each week joining us for an amazing start to our season. Our first performance will be at Poirier’s Remembrance Day assembly, which is scheduled for 10:30 am on Tuesday, November 10th in the gym.
We are working on a piece called Enfant de Paix ~ Child of Peace. It can be found in French ia the link below. I will post the English lyrics on the blog soon – stay tuned! In the mean time, enjoy this beautiful song, and encourage your choir student to listen and sing along for practise.
The choir rehearses weekly in the Music Room at lunch on Fridays. We will occasionally rehearse during a special choir block on Fridays between recess and lunch. On these days, choir members will not miss their lunch play time, and can also be involved in the many other activities that are always happening at Poirier. As choir carries on for the entire year, we thought it would be helpful to allow some rehearsal time to take place during the instructional day. Besides, singing is great for the brain!
The choir will be accepting new members until Friday this week. We ask that students attend a minimum of three rehearsals before they participate in a performance.
