Winter Choir for Grade Three Students

Royal Oak School is excited to offer our Grade Three Students an opportunity to participate in our Winter Choir!  We will meet over the lunch hour (12:15 – 12:45) on Mondays and Wednesdays from November 14^th – December 12^th.

During this time, we will prepare seasonal music to perform in the community on December 13^th.  We will be singing in three venues:

Permission Form 

            - Robert Thirsk High School,

            - Crowfoot Branch of the Calgary Public Library, and

            - Rocky Ridge Retirement Community.

To ensure our final performance is as strong as possible, students are required to attend all rehearsals. If your child would like to commit to this club, please sign and return the form that was distributed today by Thursday, November 10^th.  If you would like a digital version (in jpeg format), please click on the image to the right: 

I look forward to sharing this experience with your child!  If you have any questions, please contact me through the school.

Grade Three Remembrance Day Song

The Grade Three students have been working on our Remembrance Day song for the last few weeks, memorising the lyrics and learning how to make their voices blend together into one sound.  It's an important responsibility, and the students should feel proud of themselves for taking their preparation so seriously.  

Please play the video below to practice the song in your classroom or at home. 

Last night I had the strangest dream,

   I ever dreamed before.

I dreamed the world had all agreed

   to put an end to war.

I dreamed I saw a mighty room.

   The room was filled with men.

The papers they were signing said

   they'd never fight again.

And when the papers all were signed,

   and a million copies made,

They all joined hands and bowed their heads

   and grateful prayers were prayed.

Last night I had the strangest dream,

   I ever dreamed before.

I dreamed the world had all agreed

   to put an end to war.
