Christmas Carols at YMCA on Dec 17

The Royal Oak School Grade Three Winter Choir is pleased to invite you to the Shane Homes YMCA 
in Rocky Ridge to hear us sing some Christmas Carols!   

We will be performing on Tuesday, December 17th at 10:30am, just inside the front doors. 

These dedicated Grade Three students have been practicing hard for a month and are very excited to share 
their seasonal music with our community!  People of all ages will enjoy old classics like Rudolf and Frosty, 
as well as a few contemporary pieces.   

Please consider joining us for some holiday magic and celebrate the joy of the season with our 
students at the Y!
