Awards Evening 2018

SHOWCASE & PRESENTATION OF CUPS AND AWARDS

Saturday 29th September 2018– 4.30pm

Jubilee Community Centre

 

Dear Parents, as there has not been a lot of interest in our advertised Fund Raiser for next Saturday we have decided to refocus our fundraising efforts in this Show year commencing with Cups & Awards, with Afternoon tea. Subsequently the Fundraising team will be organising a major parents only fundraising evening in the spring, along with our termly Non-Uniform days. Watch this space and website for details as your support is needed to reach our £12,000 target!

 

Showcase

We will be presenting a short Showcase of a few chosen pieces from classes and Festival Work of the various genres we have within our curriculum. This will take place as previously advertised at Jubilee Community Centre Charlwoods Road commencing at 4.30pm with an Interval for Cream Teas & Cakes and a Silent Auction provided by my terrific parent supporters as part of our Fund Raising for the Show 2019.

 

Ticket prices £3.00 per person £10 Family ticket. If anyone can help the “A” Team on the day or make cakes please let me or Sam know. This will then be followed by the rest of our 2018 Prize Giving with the event finishing at approximately 6.30/7.00.

 

Cups & Awards

For those parents who are not familiar with our Prize Giving, there is an award for 1 child in every class, who my staff and I consider have made the most “Progress” throughout the past academic year. There are also Special Awards for Neatness, Musicality, Personality, Expression and even Theory! I do hope that as many of you as possible will attend to support and applaud those children who have been successful.

There are still some cups & awards outstanding from last time please can you return them clean no later than Wednesday 26th September to avoid the next recipient being disappointed.

Please see over for the Classes/Festival pieces I would like to take part. If your child is willing to participate, please email Sam ASAP so I can confirm numbers.

I’m sure it will be a most enjoyable and successful afternoon as we celebrate the pupil’s great achievements from this last academic year!

Thank you in advance for your support, looking forward to seeing you there!

Kindest regards,

Kay Ball

FANCY DRESS WEEK (and Easter Egg Raffle)

We apologise for the late notice, we hoped to get a notice out last week but other circumstances got in the way.

This week we are having a Non-Uniform/Fancy Dress week at Redhurst where we invite all children to bring in £1 and in return, they can wear either their own clothes or be outrageous and wear fancy dress for classes!

Please make sure they can move comfortably and safely in their clothes.

 

 

We will also be having an Easter Raffle! For a chance to win one of three delicious Easter Eggs you can buy a ticket for 50p, three prizes means three chances.

 

 

 

ALL money raised from these two incentives will go straight into our SHOW FUND!

As you know, next term is show term and to put on a show costs thousands of pounds for the theatre, lighting, costumes etc, only some of which is covered by the show fee and ticket sales which we want to keep affordable.

Due to popular demand, and contrary to our original announcement we would like to put on THREE shows, (evening Tuesday 25th plus Matinee/Evening Wednesday 26th July) but to do so we need to raise a considerable sum. Every little helps, so please support us.

 

To summarise

Non-Uniform week (tomorrow Mon 13 to Sat 18 March) £1

Raffle tickets 50p (of course you can buy more than one if you wish 😀

Fancy Dress Non-Uniform Week

Week commencing Monday 27th June

Redhurst will be holding a

‘Fancy Dress Non-uniform Week’.

Your child(ren) can choose to wear a fancy dress outfit that they already have in their wardrobe or why not be original and make something a little different?

Pay £1 per class (or for more than 2 classes, pay £2 for the week), for the privilege of wearing your costume to class(es). Why not get together with a friend or group and arrange a theme?

We must point out however, ballet shoes, tap shoes and character shoes must still be worn and that costumes are not too long that will get under your feet when dancing.

Please give your donations to Miss Kay/dance assistant at the beginning of class.

We look forward to seeing our dancers in some very fancy costumes!

All donations contribute towards the Redhurst Schools Dance Show Fund.
