The PB Choir/Orff Ensemble (classroom instruments, like handbells, xylophones, drums, etc.) will begin on

Thursday September 25th:

● Bell Choir/Off Ensemble: Music room, every Thursday, from 3-4 pm

○ Preference is given, on a first come-first served basis, to students who are also enrolled

in the choir program, though if space allows other students will be considered. (Max. 20)

● Parents/Guardians are responsible for their child’s transportation home at 4:00 pm.

● Parents/Guardians should enter to the left of the main entrance, through the outside doors to the

multipurpose room, sign their child out, and then exit through the main entrance.

• All Penn Beach ensembles will perform in a Winter & Spring concert

Bell Choir/ Orff Ensemble is a year-long commitment and as with any group activity, teamwork is extremely important. Since being a member of the choir is a big responsibility, I’m asking that parents sit down with your child/children to explain the importance of their presence at rehearsals and performances as well as the importance of following through with a commitment such as this. Choir is a “TEAM” effort. Although I know it is difficult to anticipate everything that may come up throughout the entire school year, I’ve included a schedule for your convenience which will help you with important rehearsal/performance dates. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Fiala at 540-6200 X7653 or sfiala@pv-eagles.org

Rehearsal & Concert Dates

Concert Attire

Proper appearance and demeanor is part of performance etiquette and students are expected to dress accordingly. The following is the elementary school choral attire for all concert performances.

● All black dress pants (down to the ankle)

No skirts, skorts, capris, leather looking pants, jeans, leggings, sweatpants or shorts

● All black shoes & socks, or boots, or sandals that strap to the back of the foot

No backless shoes

● Royal blue Pennsville Elementary School choir polo shirt (borrowed from PB)

A Pennsville Elementary School music shirt is loaned out by the school and will be distributed to all students during rehearsal. Students will be assigned individual shirts and no shirts will be shared. All students should keep and launder their shirts at home to prepare for our next performance. After our last concert in April, students should turn it in before leaving the concert area. Then, all shirts will be laundered again and stored at Penn Beach, so as to be ready for the next school year.
