Dear primary (K-3) parents,
Students are working hard in music class to memorize lyrics, listen carefully, perform with expression, and watch the conductor as they learn the songs for our primary Christmas program.
You are invited to attend this performance that tells the story of Christ’s birth and celebrates the gift of music. As our audience, you are an important part of this work of art.
Please…
• Do your best to ensure your child is at both performances on Dec. 6
• Do NOT take photos or videos. Instead, enjoy the performance by watching
and listening attentively. Professional photographers will take photos and a video to share with you later.
• Ask your child about his/her experience in rehearsals and performing
• Join us in singing the Christmas carols
• Help the students and directors to concentrate on the music by sitting quietly
when we are ready to sing
• Continue to support the students as they sing and play their instruments
