ARES Intermediate Christmas Concert     

Thursday December 19th at 6:30pm

Dear parents/Guardians,

This year the intermediate students (Grades 4-7) at Adam Robertson Elementary School will be performing a Christmas Concert.  Starting a 6:30pm, the Intermediate students will be performing a variety of songs.  Performances will be by individual Grades and will showcase what students have been learning in music recently in term one. All intermediate students are expected to attend as 'performance' is part of the music curriculum.

Students: please try to wear black pants and a white shirt for the performance 

Staff and students are excited about this event and look forward to seeing family and friends attend.

Thanks,
ARES Intermediate Staff and Mr. Simon
