We’d like to extend a special thank you to Ms Rogers, Mrs. Teggart, Mrs. Kirkham, Mrs. Yip, Katryna Yip and Carissa Yip for their fantastic effort in creating costumes for Little Red and the Wolf. Their beautiful sewing truly brought these characters to life! And as always, our sincere appreciation goes out to our dedicated students, the concert committee, and the Junior School faculty for all their hard work in making this performance a success.
After the performance, parents are invited to the Kemper Lounge to enjoy light refreshments.

Director’s Note
Storytelling is a universal thread that weaves through every culture, language, and generation. It’s more than just sharing facts—it’s about conveying emotions, values, and experiences that resonate beyond borders. Through stories, we find common ground, understand different perspectives, and build bridges between diverse communities. In a world that can sometimes feel divided, storytelling reminds us of our shared humanity, connecting us across cultures and time with the power to inspire, heal, and unite.
