NEW Poetry in Voice event @ ESA: Parent Volunteers Needed!

ESA is delighted to be hosting a brand new event for Poetry in Voice, Canada’s National Recitation Competition.

This event – to be held in the Auditorium the morning of Tuesday March 28th – is an invitational Team Regional Competition.

  • Eight participating schools will each be bringing three (3) students.
  • Each student recites one poem.
  • One team wins!

Our ESA team is composed of three delightful young ladies: Katie Beale, Renee Withnell and Sama Konateh.

To host this event requires lots of people power.

  • We have students helping out as Stage Managers and Tech Crew
  • We have a wonderful house band…  ESA Grads who are coming back for the gig.
  • We have some parents and grads helping out with judging (folks who help judge our in-school finals).

We need additional help with registration, breakfast set-up, and minding the Library for the morning while the competition is under way. We’ll make sure you get a chance to pop in and see at least one round of recitations, if you wish to…

Since the event takes place during school hours – we hope to be finished by 11:30am – we are looking for parent volunteers.

If you are interested and able to help out – anytime between 7:00am and 11:30am – please send an e-mail to enid.wray@tdsb.on.ca…  and we’ll get back to you.
