ALL OF OUR SCHOOL CHILDREN ARE INVOLVED
The students have been working hard to learn and practise a variety of
dances, under the guidance of a professional choreography company,
Footsteps.
While it is an expectation that children will be able to perform at the concert
we also want you, their parents and family, to attend. Your attendance is
vitally important to provide the students with an audience for their
performance and therefore a real reason to develop their performance
skills.
NOTICES THIS WEEK
If your child is unable to attend on the night they will still be involved
in rehearsals with their grade, however not in a manner that would
affect the performance on the night. If your child will not be
participating, please send a note to their classroom teacher.
CONCERT REHEARSAL
The whole school will be going to Robert Blackwood Hall on the day of the
concert (Tuesday 9th September) for a full rehearsal, even if your child is
not attending the concert in the evening they will need to go to the Hall as
all teachers will be involved in the rehearsal. If you have not already,
please return the bus permission note that was sent home late last
term. If the form has been misplaced, you can print a copy from the
MWNPS website.

speak to your child’s teacher.
Students will need to bring their costumes in to be
checked by their teacher by Friday, September 5th.

Mount Waverley North Primary School wishes to make still photographs, sound and video recordings of the concert on
September 9th 2014.
Sound and video recordings will be used to produce a DVD of the concert and will be available for purchase by parents

Student Attendance
As our items all involve choreography and partnerships on stage we are asking each child to bring back an attendance
slip informing classroom teachers whether or not they will be attending the concert on 9th September 2014. We can
