Our program is set for 9:40 AM on Wednesday, December 12 and Thursday, December 13. Doors will open upstairs around 9:30 AM.
Here are some ways that you can help us out:
- Encourage your children to sing loud and clear because mommy and daddy are coming to watch!
- Show excitement and encouragement that you are coming to watch them. It's a time to show off what they have learned, and they are not to be afraid. Do not expect/encourage perfection - encourage participation.
- You will notice when you come into the sanctuary that there are rows marked off for the children. Please do not sit in these rows.
- Please do not set up video cameras in the aisles that would block people. Please do not block Ms. Maria in any way as she is conducting the children, and they need to be able to see her.
The children need to wear their new Shining Light t-shirts with a white turtleneck or long-sleeve t-shirt under it. They can wear jeans or a jean skirt with it. If you have not received your child's t-shirt yet (they went home last week), please be sure and let one of the teachers know.
Nursery - this class has been videotaped. They are not quite ready for a full-blown production on stage, so we have videotaped them in their classroom and during chapel time. We will show this during the program. They are a little more performance-ready in the spring for our end-of-year program!
And by now, you should have information about your child's Christmas party. Some plan to do it the day of the program and some are going to do it on our Polar Express days (12/17 and 12/18). One last thing - would you please send a sippy cup or cup with lid on Polar Express day. We plan to have hot chocolate and marshmallows that day, and it would save us a mess if the cups had lids!
I know this has been a lot of information. These last three weeks are packed with activities, so please make sure you read all notes in folders and e-mails from teachers!
