Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent The students charmed the audience at St. Martin’s School Preschool and Kindergarten Christmas Concert on
December 19. Initially, these young ones sang ‘One Little, Two Little, Three Little Snowflakes while they counted other items as the song progressed. The con-
cert continued on with festive songs, ‘He’ll Be Coming down the Chimney When He Comes’ and a Santa song where they repeated the letters from Santa’s name. Afterwards, they sang,
‘Take a Walk Through Christmas.’ The students used plenty of expression while they sang all these songs and they closed with, ‘I Wish You a Merry Christmas.’
St. Martin’s School Grades Four to Six Christmas Concert Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent With tact and humor, St. Martin’s School Grades 4-6 students presented their Christmas Concert ‘God’s Gift to us’ on December 19. After a long day of shopping and heavy presents, the cast entered the stage saying, ‘There must be something more to Christmas than the hustle and bustle.’ This act was followed by hand bells performances where the rest of the students sang Christmas carols. These songs added rhythmic brightness and meaning to the concert. Then the students walked the audience through a narration of the story of the birth of Jesus Christ where the shoppers found out the true meaning of Christmas. All this joy was met with the grand finale where the students performed an original, humourous version of ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’ where the first day the person received a Mountie on a big horse, and later, received six dancing reindeers from their true love. The audience whistled, cheered and issued a standing ovation at the end.
