This choir of orphans from Africa will be performing for our students at various times throughout the day (see below). Instead of an admission fee for our students to cover the cost of this choir visiting our school, we encourage students to bring in a loonie or twoonie to help support children in the choir. Students can donate money, but they can also donate basic essentials such as toiletries (toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, etc., NOT toilet paper), socks and underwear. Whatever is brought in by the students for this special presentation will be greatly appreciated by these under-privileged African orphans.</p><p>Our schedule is as follows: </p><p>Period 2 – Junior (Grades 1 – 3)<br>Period 3 – Intermediates (Grades 7 & 8)<br>Period 5 – Juniors (Grades 4 – 6)</p><p>The choir will also have a table of jewelry and other craft items available for sale to our students.</p><p>Thanks for your support!</p> | | | |
