The 5th-grade choir brought the holiday spirit to life, performing memorable songs during their annual choir tour!
Their first stop was Fairville Friends School, where they performed and joined the students in song. After a brief Meeting for Worship, they had a meet-and-greet with the kindergarteners. The visit was especially memorable for some of our fifth graders, who cherished the chance to reconnect with former WFS kindergarten teacher, Kim Alberta.
The tour ended at the Brandywine River Museum, where students performed for patrons. The show streamed live on Facebook, sharing their music with a wider audience.
The 5th-grade choir truly spread joy and holiday cheer throughout the community. Bravo!
