Holiday Tea Preparations

Holiday Tea
Friday, December 7th, 2007
5:30 p.m.
Hopkinton Town Hall

We invite you to celebrate the holiday season with Kindergarten -8th grade students at our annual Holiday Tea!

This traditional holiday performance begins at the Hopkinton Town Hall. A dinner reception will be held immediately following at the St. Andrew’s Parish Hall a few doors down.

Elementary & Upper Grades Students

Friday, December 7th is an extended day for all grades 1-8 students. There is no after school program; instead, the children will remain with their classes making final preparations for the holiday celebration. Students should bring their dress clothes to school. They will have time to change before we transport them to the Town Hall.

Kindergarten Students

If possible for families, kindergarten students are encouraged to go home for a break at some point during the afternoon so they can perform rested and refreshed. If your kindergartener must stay at school, please send his or her dress clothes to school. If your kindergartener does go home with you, please arrive at the Town Hall by 5:15.

What Do I Bring to the Potluck Dinner?

Students in each class are asked to provide one side dish item for the dinner reception. These items should be brought to school on the morning of Friday, December 7 in order to facilitate preparations for the evening:
  • Abenakis and Amoskeags: salad (enough for 12 in a zip-lock bag)
  • Ossippees: vegetable or fruit side dish (enough for 12)
  • Monadnocks and Soonipis: 2 dozen cookies or brownies

Please see the parent bulletin board for more details on set up, clean up, and the dinner reception.

Directions

The Hopkinton Town Hall is located on Main Street in downtown Hopkinton, on the right-hand side of the road (if you're coming from HIS).
