Performance dates for Kesho Amahoro in July are due on Monday - get your diaries ready everyone and please 'like' on facebook and 'follow' on twitter:
www.facebook.com/keshoamahoro www.twitter.com/KeshoAmahoro Thank you very much. Thank you very much to the 33 bands that auditioned last week. Most of the bands that didn't make it through to Thursday's final required more rehearsal. Some of the original songs that had been written by the children have great potential and lovely lyrics. The key to a good performance at audition is practise and lots of it.
Congratulations to the top 12 bands who will battle it out in the final on Thursday 14th March 3.30 - 5.00: FORMIDABLES, GALAXIA, THE FIDDLES, UNTITLED, CHECKPOINT, REPLAY, THREE LITTLE BIRDS, TEEN LIGHTENING, LITTLE PAPER PLANE, LETHAL, STORM BREAKERS & JIGSAW. NO ORCHESTRA TOMORROW - Sincere apologies for the cancellation.
The entry deadline is THIS FRIDAY - (1st March). Entry forms handed in after this date will NOT be accepted.
Auditions will take place in the music room at lunchtime on Wednesday 6th, Thursday 7th and Friday 8th March. The top 12 bands will be revealed on Friday 8th March. The top 12 bands will battle it out in the Final on Thursday 14th March in the hall, 3.30pm - 5.00pm. For more information and to download the entry form, visit the Battle of the Bands page.

Bravo 4P and 4M for your concerts on Monday. I hope you enjoyed your Soundmakers experience.
It is very important that your instruments are returned to school immediately as they need to be checked, cleaned, (fixed - if necessary) and re-labelled so that they can be distributed to 4C and 4R. They begin their Soundmakers lessons on the first Monday back after half term. Kesho Amahoro will definitely make its UK debut at the International Youth Arts Festival in July 2013. Actual performance dates are expected next week.
Congratulations to the cast of Kesho Amahoro. During yesterday's rehearsal, the adults in the audience were amazed at how well you stayed in character and by the passion and pain in your eyes. I'm very proud of you all. This is a very encouraging start to our first few weeks of rehearsals. I am very much looking forward to many more wonderful rehearsals.
4P and 4M will perform in a soundmakers concert on Monday 11th February:
4P: 09:30 4M: 10:45 The audience will consist of parents, carers and children from other classes Downs Junior School is OPEN today.
Thank you very much to the everyone who attended the first Kesho Amahoro rehearsal yesterday after school.
Dates for your diary (provisionally): Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st July 2013 - meet, greet and rehearse with the cast coming from Kenya. The Year 4 theme for this year's parade is Wallace and Gromit! Please contact Miss Rusbatch if you have some creative musical ideas on this topic.
