With our performance soon approaching there are a few things we want to make you aware of. By now we hope that you all have managed to book your tickets, they were selling very quickly but I know a few more have been released. We are keeping our costumes simple - not to take away from the dance. We therefore ask if you could just provide a pair of black leggings or shorts that your child could wear and we have coloured t-shirt.
The day of our performance: Tuesday 15th November.
On this day the children will come to school as normal (wear PE kit). They will access their usual morning lessons before we all have lunch at an earlier time. As this is a long day we advise that you book a hot school meal as they will not be having their usual evening meals, however this is not a must - you know your child and what they will/will not eat. After we have eaten lunch we will then get on a coach which will take us to the Winter Gardens where we will remain for the rest of the day - until the show has finished. We will have 1 rehearsal on the stage and the remainder of the time we will be backstage - we therefore ask that you bring a couple of books, colouring books or puzzle books to keep you busy (nothing valuable). We ask that you bring to school a packed meal (this will be your evening meal which we will eat at the Winter Gardens). After the show we will take the children to a meeting place (TBC via text nearer the time) and this is where you will collect your child.
To clarify your checklist for the day:
wear school tracksuit and bring a coat.
make sure your leggings are in school ready to take with us.
pack your bag with a couple of books, crayons and colouring book/puzzle book (no tech/valuables as belongings won’t always be supervised).
book a school meal or bring a packed lunch for our lunchtime at school.
bring a packed meal (in a plastic bag-easy to throw away after) that we will eat during our evening at the Winter Gardens.
make sure you have a snack or two and a water bottle/drinks(non fizzy) to keep you going throughout the day.
