The White Bear Education Complex hosted their annual Christmas Concert on Thursday, Dec. 18. The youth had put a lot of work into preparing for the event, while the community was very receptive as the gym was filled with friends and family.
Even the White Bear Band Office got into the spirit of the season, opening up the Christmas concert with a medley of songs.
Each grade from Kindergarten to grade seven performed onstage singing classics such as “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” and more recent favourites “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?” from the movie Frozen.
The White Bear Drama Group also took to the stage where they performed, “Will the Real Santa Stand?” It focused on a Scrooge-like character who wanted to stop the Christmas season by kidnapping Santa. Later they let him go, but is chased by those the individual had wronged attempting to stop them from having fun in winter.
The Glee Club also came together singing “The Most Wonderful Day of the Year,” “Jingle Bell Rock” and “Penguin, James Penguin.”
It was a fun event for the youth to partake in, while being supported by the community. Though some were shy about being on-stage all did a wonderful job.
