The Wallace Fields Junior School upper school choir members have been invited to Epsom College on Tuesday 6th October to join other local schools for their annual Music Festival, led by the Director of Music, Mr Paul Johnson-Hyde. It’s always a lovely day, the children will be taught some songs and how to be part of a large choir. There will then be a short concert for parents at the end of the day (please see invite below from Epsom College).
On the day, children will be expected to come to school as normal and we will walk them to Epsom College ready for a 10:30am start. We have two school volunteers who have offered to accompany Mrs Baxter and myself, but we need an extra parent volunteer to help walk us there in the morning. If you are able to help, please could you indicate this on the google form below. We will need you to meet us in the school office at 9.30am as we will be leaving around 9.45am.
Lunch is provided by Epsom college so all children need to bring with them is a raincoat and a water bottle. If they can leave school bags at home that makes things a lot easier as they tend to get in the way (and please, definitely no fidget toys or books – we will be busy rehearsing!) Children need to wear full winter uniform (shirt and tie) so we look smart for the concert.
Epsom College are very kindly providing refreshments for parents/carers (in Main Hall at 3.30pm) before a little end of the day concert at 4pm (in Big School). We would be delighted if you could join us for the children’s final performance. Please see invitation at the end of this letter.
If you are not able to attend the concert, please arrange for your child to be collected from the main entrance of Epsom College at 4.20pm.
If your child would like to take part in this event, please click here and complete the google form sent to parents/carers of choir members by next Monday 21th September as Epsom college need to organise the catering.
I am very much looking forward to this day and I am sure the choir will have a wonderful experience.
