Stewartry Dance Competition –  Tuesday 10th December

(10am-12pm in Castle Douglas Town Hall)

There are 16 pupils involved in the dance competition and they have been attending an after schools dance club with Mrs L-Scott on a Wednesday.  (The last session is on Wednesday 4th December from 3-4pm in the Village Hall.)

 

Travelling Arrangements: Just to confirm that these 16 pupils will be travelling to and from school to Castle Douglas Town Hall with:

Mrs L-Scott (4 spaces)

Lucy’s Mum (? spaces)

Darby’s Dad (? spaces)

Kaiden and Bonnie’s Mum (? spaces)

Please can these parents confirm how many spaces they have in cars and also if car seats are required?

 

Costumes: Mrs L-Scott has bought white t-shirts and is transforming them into snowmen costumes for the 8 snowmen.  The eight other pupils will be wearing casual clothes including a Christmas jumper if possible, or a casual jumper if not. (Mrs L-Scott will confirm this with parents in person on Wednesday after the club.)

 

Our dance will be shared with parents at our Achievement Assembly on 13th December too.
