Christmas Carols on the Green

[Coach Beth]

Hi all,

It's the annual Christmas Carol sing-a-long on Goose Green in a few weeks! I'm really excited about it and wanted to share it all with you so you can get the date in your diaries. Join the Goose Green Primary School's children's choir and Goose Green Adult Community Choir for christmas carol singing, mulled wine and minced pies! This family friendly event is open to all - you'll find us in the middle of Goose Green, at 6pm on Thursday December the 19th.

Rob Parton, school music teacher and director of the newly formed Saturday music & drama school, The East Dulwich Academy of Music and Performing Arts will be leading the festivities. (if you have a child interested in enrolling in the term starting on the 11th January, please email him at [email protected] for more information)

The Goose Green Adult Community Choir (led by our choir director, local music teacher Dan Maitland http://eazypeazymusic.com/ ) is open to all members of the local community - we meet on Tuesday evenings, 6:30 - 7:50pm. If you'd like to join us in the New Year, our first rehersal is on Tuesday January 7th. Please email [email protected] for more information such as cost.

December 19th? ...we'll be there...usually go to The Horniman but they seem to have changed their times to earlier in the day...

Thank you, will try and pop down too.

But the horniman have two concerts on the 8th, including one at 4pm.

[emza78]

Think the horniman concerts are on the 7th..

Silence is good for peace

[gebbjane]

Don't know why I originally put the 9th, they are Sunday 8th.

Oh I loved the carols on the Green and the mulled wine last year, we'll be there.

[Coach Beth]

Oh, I forgot to mention that we are hoping to have a brass band as well to accompany us but I'll confirm this soon. And the children will be bringing laterns they designed with the school's art teacher but it might be a good idea to bring a torch so you can see the song sheets.

[Coach Beth]

Just a reminder that this is coming up next week - am enjoying practicing my favorite carols!

Just Bumping this: Thursday 19th at 6pm. I'm looking forward to it :D

[liz.e.jones]

Apart from 'a light rain shower' the forecast looks good. Hopefully we'll be able to make it.

[Coach Beth]

Please remember to bring a torch if you are coming tomorrow night so you can read the carol song sheets!!

[Tigres Pride]

Just sorry I'm going to miss the carol singing due to Winter stomach virus

[Coach Beth]

Thanks everyone who came - we had over 70 people gathered round the Christmas Tree, singing away with a fantastic brass band accompanying us! I also wanted to mention that the website for the new Saturday Music and Drama School (sponsored by Goose Green School) is now up and running! Check it out at: http://www.eastdulwichacademy.org/
