Christmas Concert Preparations...

The Grade Six students are very busy these days in Language and Music classes, preparing for the Christmas Concert that is fast approaching on Thursday, December 13th. Of course, the Grade Sixes have the character roles and speaking parts of the play and this year our play is entitled Christmas in the Country. We are spending a lot of our class time learning new songs, memorizing lines and even doing a little dancing!
The Concert play has a definite 'western-country' atmosphere and our Grade 6 characters will need to dress Western...so we ask your help with costuming, props, and set. Do you have any western duds ( hats, shirts, etc) lariats, etc. that you could lend to us for the concert? Also, we have some typical farm animal characters: sheep, pig and a cow. If you have any costumes that could pass for these animals, please send them along as well.

Thanks! It looks to be a great concert, with lots of great singing and acting from all the classes in the school. See you there!
