Described by Elena Berman, director of the Nelly Berman School as “undoubtedly some of the most extraordinary young musicians in the Greater Philadelphia Area and beyond,” students on the concert include winners of numerous international, national, regional, and local music competitions. Some of the students practice four or more hours per day and many of these students take two, one-hour lessons a week or more.

Over the past two weeks, the students have helped families in need, visited religious sisters at New Sharon, and volunteered at The Village in Bryn Mawr. Last week, Holy Child eighth graders bought presents for five deserving families in Philadelphia. After school, twenty-five students and seven chaperones took a trip to Walmart to pick out and purchase gifts. Once finished, the group collaborated to wrap the presents for the families. On Wednesday, December 6, over a dozen Middle School students facilitated arts and crafts for foster children during The Village’s Christmas Party.

Seeking to increase its visibility among Philadelphia’s international community, the school partnered with the Consular Corps Association of Philadelphia (CCAP) to promote the event. Five members of the Consular Corps Association were in attendance, including: Vincent Finn, M.Sc., Trade Commissioner of Canada; Michael E. Scullin, Honorary Consul of France and a member of the French International School’s Board of Trustees; Ralf D.

Halfway through the evening, Kathy Kotchick, the Head of the French International School, welcomed the assembled guests and thanked them for attending. Speaking about the school’s unique offerings, Kotchick highlighted both its dual curriculum in French and English – the school is accredited by both the French Ministry of Education and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools – as well as its role as a “…gathering place for international families.” According to Kotchick, the school currently welcomes families representing more than 50 different nationalities. For those arriving from abroad, the school is often the first point of contact in Philadelphia, providing not only useful information but also opportunities to get involved and become a part of a community. She invited those wishing to learn more to speak with some of the school parents, Board members and administrators in attendance. Guests also heard from Deborah Willig, the Chair of the French International School’s Board of Trustees, and Peter Longstreth, the CCAP President. Willig spoke about her personal experience as a French International School parent, sharing that her daughter Sydney, who entered in prekindergarten and graduated last June, had developed a compassionate, global worldview throughout her time at the school. Mr. Longstreth, speaking on behalf of his colleagues, noted what an asset the school is to the city of Philadelphia, which boasts a large international community and counts 51 members in its Consular Corps Association. Following remarks, guests spent the rest of the evening conversing with one another and making new connections. At the end of the reception, each received a small gift bag with French “madeleines” to take with them as a thank you gift for joining the event. Located in Bala Cynwyd, PA, the French International School of Philadelphia is an independent pre-kindergarten through eighth grade school serving a multicultural community and offering a comprehensive bilingual curriculum in French and English. Accredited by both the French Ministry of Education and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, the school expects its students to become global citizens with a deeper understanding of and appreciation for other cultures.

We know that the love of live theatre often begins with very young children taken to performances by a family member. By combining music, audience interaction and a family-friendly story in a relaxed environment, we hope to light that spark of interest that we know lasts a lifetime with theatre-goers.”
P
In “A Dream Is A Wish: Holiday Princess Concert,” Cinderella is planning a holiday celebration for all the wonderful people of the kingdom and all of her princess friends. The newest and youngest princess, Sofia, became a princess overnight and wishes to be the best princess that she can be. Through meeting Belle, Mulan, Rapunzel, Anna and Elsa, Moana, and Ariel at the party, Sofia learns that each princess has obstacles to overcome and her own path to discover but no matter what, if she’s true to herself, she will find her way. Audiences journey along with Sofia as she learns what “being a princess is all about,” and they’ll sing-along with over 16 favorites: A Dream Is a Wish, Let It Go, Reflection, Part of Your World, Marshmallow World, Frosty the Snowman, It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and more. Following the show, all the little princesses and princes in attendance will be invited to meet the cast in a special postshow meet-and-greet. Holiday cookies and apple cider will add to the festive afternoon! Bring your camera to take photos after the show with the cast. (No photos during the show will be allowed.) “My hope is that we see generations come out and make theater a new holiday tradition,” added Price. “We want to see grandparents, parents and little ones sharing the magic of theatre together.” Tickets are $35 at www.philadelphiatheatrecompany.org, at the box-office, or by calling 215-985-0420. There is a ten percent discount available for four packs of tickets.

These hallacas are then shared with your neighbors, friends, employees, and other family members. This is similar to the concept of sharing platters of Christmas cookies in America. At Puyero, Manuela will be sharing her family’s recipes with Puyero’s dear customers. “The Christmas season is a very special time for me. Since very early in my childhood I have memories of going to my grandparent’s house with my parents, cousins, aunts, uncles to help with this task,” said Manuela. “Being able to make hallacas in Philly is a way to stay connected with my roots, my family, and my traditions.” All throughout December fridges are filled with hallacas. People will eat them as they please. Some might have them for breakfast after a night partying, others for lunch, and some will save them for reunions and gatherings.
Pan de Jamón is Venezuelan Christmas bread filled with smoked ham, raisins, and olives. Hallacas are very similar to a tamale, but hallacas are only made during the Christmas season. Each one is made from corn dough and stuffed with a stew made from the meat of choice. The fat from the stew is also used to add extra flavor to the corn dough.

Donors’ names and the names of those they are honoring are listed in a Memorial Book. Proceeds are used to enhance patient care programs at the medical center.
