Pirates from Grammar Island

I am sure you have heard many of our wonderful songs already, but for the real thing we will be performing on May 23rd at 9:00 sharp! Everyone is very excited to show their hard work!  

There are multiple youtube videos of others performing the same play if your child wants to practice songs at home! As for costumes everyone needs to dress like a pirate. I was thinking a simple one would be a white button down shirt or striped t-shirt, black pants, and some pirate gear. To make it fancier you could get a vest, maybe a sash around the waist, a hat. Any and all accessories would be appreciated!! If you have extras we would love to borrow some. Some students have other parts and costumes and I have talked to them about it already.  We will need costumes checked off before the 23rd. Let me know if you have any questions!

*Please meet us at the Roy Front Runner Station no later than 8:15 AM.  I will be there at 8:00 AM, so if you need to bring your child earlier than 8:15, I will be there.
*Make sure your child wears their tie-dyed shirt we made earlier in the year.  They need to wear uniform pants.  
*Every student will need to bring their backpacks to carry everything they need for the day:  their sack lunch, water bottle, jacket, games, books, tablets, etc.  In regards to lunches, there will not be a microwave, so they need to bring something that can be eaten cold.
*If your child brings an electronic item or camera  to use on the train, they are responsible for it.  If it is lost or stolen, it is not our responsibility.  
*Children need to wear comfortable shoes because they will be doing lots of walking.
**Parents please do not buy anything in the store for your child or the other children in your group.  We don’t want anyone to feel bad for not getting something someone else got.
**Please note the pick up time at the Roy Front Runner Station is later than school dismissal time at Quest.  The train arrives in Roy at 3:45 PM.  Please be there to pick your child up promptly.**
