Kids for Kids Concert

Roxburgh Area School Kids for Kids choir.

Suzanne Prentice with the choir.

Wow! What a day! Early on Thursday morning a group of Room 5 students left Roxburgh to go to Gore to sing as part of the mass choir in  the Kids for Kids concert with Suzanne Prentice. We had a practice in the morning with Suzanne Prentice and the rest of the choir which was made up of children from schools around Gore. After that we went to St Mary's School to have our lunch, have a play in their playground and then we watched a movie. We had lollipops! Thank you Mrs Wilson! Our next stop was a visit to the museum, art gallery and the library. The library was awesome! Then it was time for tea. Many of us went to McDonalds. It was yummy! Finally the time had arrived for the concert. We were feeling nervous and excited! We got out on stage, the curtain went up and there were lots of people looking at us! We could see lots of parents out in the audience. It was so amazing to be singing with Suzanne Prentice in front of so many people. It was so funny when Suzanne Prentice came out dressed up as a school boy to sing "Hello Mother, Hello Father". When we were singing "Putting on the Ritz" a giant cat called Theodore came out on stage. He was so hilarious! The conductor was really cool, he had big, boofy hair. Shanae and Kaela were chosen to sing solos, we are so proud of them. We all had a fabulous day. We were all pretty tired but it was worth it!
