NHS Band/Choir Concert rescheduled to December 14

[Nepean High School School Council]

Principal Patrick McCarthy has asked that this message be emailed to all parents as the Synervoice system is not working at present. Please note that there is a letter attached to this email which provides greater detail regarding the rescheduling of the Winter Band/Choir concert to Friday, December 14 from 1 - 3 pm. Included in the attached letter is an RSVP form and a reminder that donations of non-perishable items for the Food Bank will be gratefully accepted at the door. The text below is from Patrick:

 I wanted to advise you all of another change to our schedule as a result of the ongoing labour dispute. Our music teachers will not be available to supervise an evening event as we had planned for the Winter Concert. They remain committed to holding the concert this December and so we have decided on a new date & time, Friday December 14th from 1-3 p.m.

I apologize for any inconvenience that this change will cause for families attending the event. We are looking forward to a great concert and our kids are excited they will be able to perform, play and sing as they do so very well! We met with Band/Vocal students today and informed them the full concert will go ahead. We shared the reasons for the change and asked them to inform their parents ASAP. Each student was given a letter to share with their parents, but we know that sometimes not every letter makes it home. A copy of the letter is included with this email.

As always, contact me at any time if you have questions or thoughts to share. Please pass this email on to any parents in the Nepean community you know will want to attend our Winter Concert. Thank you in advance for your support! To those of you celebrating the beginning Hanukkah this weekend may you have a bright and happy start to the season!

All the best, Patrick
