Remembrance Day Assembly
Our Remembrance Day Assembly takes place on November 8th. Family and friends are invited to attend. There will be two assemblies and performances on the day of, in order to accommodate seating all of our grades at Nose Creek School. Due to the difficulty of timing assemblies, we have set our first assembly at 9:00 am, followed by a ten minute school-wide nutrition break, and then we will run our second assembly.
Students that are part of the performing groups in the assembly must attend a mandatory dress rehearsal on Thursday, November 7th from 3:00 – 5:00pm. This technical dress rehearsal will take place in the gym, and allows students an opportunity to practice performing with elements such as microphones, and risers. Students need to ensure they have a way home after rehearsal either through walking or a ride arranged by parents.
Students are asked to wear black bottoms and white tops for the performance.
