Dear King School International Night Team:
WOW!!! We are 1.5 weeks away from King School's fabulous International Night! Remember!
Thursday, January 31, 6:30-8:30. (and maybe a little later)
(If you are performing or working, plan to get there no later than 6pm or whatever time your team leader tells you to be there. Some teams start work when school gets out at 3:41).
NEEDED: STAGE DECORATION TEAM to put up decorations. Contact
fkwang@aol.com
NEEDED: COUNTRY DISPLAYS
If you have a country display or would like to make one, please bring it to the office this week and we will hang them on the walls so the kids can take their time looking at them and learning from them! Be as creative as you want to be. We are looking for wider representation and political balance. Please remember no flags. Contact our Country Display Chairs Padma Anupindi
p_anupindi@hotmail.com 769-5928 and Sandra Wong
swong47@gmail.com 418-3290 for questions.
PERFORMANCES: Attached is a program draft, please check the info there, esp the names, and send me any missing/incorrect info! Team Leaders: Please read all the names, not only the names in your group, to double check the kids who are in other groups and let me know about kids who are double booked that may not have enough time to change clothes. I think i have everyone spread out enough but i may have missed a few people. Thanks!
The order is tentative and will still change.
Please give your music on CD to Mrs. Vanek by Thursday 1/24 so she can burn one cd (this is new).
Remember:
3 minutes max,
enter from ramp side, exit from parking lot side,
practice your bows,
have parents assigned for both sides of the stage to help get the kids on and off stage,
tell your performers when to meet (you can meet in the music room, but don't keep them there all night),
feed your performing kids before you come,
music must be on cd to mrs. vanek by Thursday 1/24
send me anything you want me to say to introduce your group
Remember time is very tight so speedy entrances and exits are key!
