:: All Students (K-5)
Hello Wedgwood Families!
Just a reminder that our Winter Concert: Wedgwood Around the World will occur on December 19th from 5:30-7:30 PM at Nathan Hale High School! Join us for a night full of songs in a wide range of languages and dances from cultures all around the globe! The concert night will be split into two concerts with Grades K-2 performing from 5:30-6:15pm and Grades 3-5 performing from 6:45-7:30pm. Choir will be performing their songs at both concerts!
Here is some additional information about the day of the event:
Kindergarten-2nd grade - Please have your student(s) arrive at 5:10pm and follow the signs to their backstage room. Please do not come earlier than 5:10 as there will not be supervision! Their backstage room is where the students will be staying during the other performances (a stage manager/volunteer will get them and lead them to the stage when it’s their turn). After the final choir performance students can be picked up in their backstage room.
3rd grade-5th grade - Please have your student(s) arrive at 6:30pm and follow the signs to their backstage room. This is where the students will stay during the other performances (a stage manager/teacher will get them and lead them to the stage when it’s their turn). After the final choir performance students can be picked up in their designated room backstage.
Choir - Please have your student(s) arrive at 5:10pm and meet in the backstage room marked Choir. After the first show the students will be escorted back to their room for the next show. After the final choir performance students will be picked up in their designated room backstage.
There will be a 30 minute intermission between shows so that students can be picked up/go where they’re needed.
Please do not come into the theater before the doors have been officially opened. At that point we are still working on sound and need an empty space. Thank you.
Please no “costumes”! We wish to be respectful of the cultures we have been learning about J
I am looking for parent volunteers for the night of the concert! This would involve sitting in the rooms with the kids backstage and helping them line up and get onto and off the stage. You would still get to see your child perform, just from the side of the stage! The commitment would be from 5:00-7:45 (or you can opt to do just one of the concerts). Choir parents especially please consider this as you are going to be at both concerts anyway J Please email Ms. Waltzer if available and willing.
Also please note there is always a lot going on at the High School so prepare accordingly as parking may be scarce! Carpooling is a great way to ensure you get a parking spot that isn’t too far away J Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions for I am sure I have probably missed things!
Thank you! -Eia Waltzer (eawaltzer@seattleschools.org)
