This week ÉLES will host Christmas Concerts on Wednesday December 11th (English), and Thursday, December 12th (French).
General Information for families:
-We asked families to communicate their tickets requests in advance to be sure that we have enough seating. Please note that there will be no “physical tickets”. The gym will be near capacity on the evening of December 11th, so please try not to leave single seats open so that families can sit together. It is important that families do not exceed the allotted two audience members per performance unless your request for additional tickets was confirmed
-All students will have the opportunity to view the concerts during our morning practices.
-Audience members are welcome to leave their shoes on. Please refrain from bringing food or beverages into the gym.
-For the matinee performances, families can simply come in the front doors and head toward the gym to check in. Parents are invited to park in the bus pickup area in front of the school, however, vehicles must be gone by 2:55 pm to make room for the arrival of our busses at 3:00 pm. Side streets near the school are also a good option.
-For evening performances, parents are asked to drop students off at their classrooms where teachers will be there to greet them. Students should remove boots and use their regular boot racks. Parents are welcome to park wherever space is available. After the evening concert, parents are asked to pick up their children directly from their respective classrooms with the option of exiting the nearest door.
-We very much understand that parents would like to capture the moment with photographs or videos, but kindly ask that images of other children are not broadly shared on social media. Please be conscientious of blocking the view of others while taking pictures or recording.
We are excited to bring our school community together this holiday season!
See you soon!
Your ÉLES Team
