Halifax Schools Music Centre

School Tour 2013

The Youth Honour Choir and the All-City Honour Violins will be doing their annual School Tour on Thursday, May 23, 2013. The day will include performances at 4 schools, lunch, and bowling. Students are asked to please bring their own lunch.

This year we will be performing at John W. MacLeod School (8:50 am), Grosvenor Wentworth School (10:00 am), Duc D’Anville School (11:15 am), and Saint Mary’s Elementary (1:30 pm). Students are to be dropped off at John W. MacLeod School at 8:15 am and they can be picked up at Fairlanes Bowling Alley in the Halifax Shopping Centre at 3:30 pm. We will be traveling to Duc D’Anville, Grosvenor, Saint Mary’s and the bowling ally by Stock Transportation. Transportation to John W. MacLeod School and pick up from Fairlanes Bowling is the responsibility of the parents. We recommend car pooling. Please make sure you have a current J Form on file.

The dress for the day is our black choir shirts, black pants, and black flats. Students should also know what shoe size they are so that things can move quickly and smoothly at the bowling ally. Students are asked to bring a snack and a lunch; however, parents and students are reminded the event will be nut-free.

We will need a couple parents to attend as chaperones. Please email me asap if you are able to chaperone, and/or indicate on the form below. We are very excited about sharing our music and our love of singing with these schools and to have a great time celebrating our successful year with bowling in the afternoon.

Students are asked to remember the following:

ü bring a snack and lunch ü wear black choir shirt, black pants, black flats ü know shoe size!

Sincerely,

Katrina Mills Pecknold
