Both choirs will travel on the same bus which will depart from the school at 8:45 a.m. Three parent volunteers are needed to travel with choir students on the bus. Please notify Miss Frenette at the school ASAP if you are available to assist us.
Elementary Choir students are asked to dress appropriately for this event, no jeans or sneakers. Members of the Blackville School Girls’ Choir will wear their choir dresses with appropriate footwear.

If there are any questions or concerns, please contact Miss Frenette at the school.
