Barrett students sing about Santa's travels during winter concert

  • Posted December 19, 2024

Santa's ready to fly around the world thanks to the encouragement of Barrett Elementary students, who shared all the ways Santa can overcome unexpected challenges as he makes his deliveries.

Whether it's meeting a donkey named Dominick in the Italian Alps, asking a herd of Zebras for help n Africa, or making friends with Pablo the Reindeer in Mexico, Barrett students shared songs about Santa's travels and friends.

The second graders opened the show with a series of songs about the famous animals who pull Santa's sleigh, as they performed "Pablo the Reindeer," "Nine Little Reindeer," and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer."

Kindergarten students were next and performed "Jingle Bells," "Santa, Santa Get Your Sleigh," and a tribute to three of Santa's helpers, "Hardrock, Coco, & Joe."

Fourth graders came on stage to find out what happens "If It Doesn't Snow on Christmas." They also performed "Santa's Using Zebras Now" and "Hallelujah."

For the first time at a winter concert, Pre-K students joined in on the holiday fun with "The Reindeer Hokey Pokey" and "Up on the Housetop."

First graders were up next with "Jolly Old St. Nicholas," "I Have a Loose Tooth," "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth," and "Sleigh Bells."

Third graders wrapped up the show with "Must Be Santa," "Dominick the Donkey," "and "Thirty-two Feet and Eight Little Tails."

Thanks once more to music teacher Ms. Kerry Melega for her outstanding work with the students, Ms. Jesse McCreery for helping with the set and stage, the Barrett staff, Ms. Betty Lyons, and the Barrett Special Events Committee for their extra work, and to the administration, school board, and community for their support.

Happy holidays from Barrett!
