Welcome Back to Music!
Great news! Nightingale was confirmed to have won the opportunity to have the District Guitar kit for 2nd term. Intermediate students begin the year with a special Guitar unit until Spring Break.. Grades 4 and 5 students will get a small taste of guitar though will focus on Ukuleles. Primary students (Grades 1-4) will focus on the Ukulele as a basis of learning for this semester.
BIG NEWS for this term: Our school musical has been announced. A Year With Frog and Toad. We are doing a full fledged Broadway (Kids) musical this year for the very first time. Thanks to the PAC for making this endeavor possible. Auditions will be the week of February 1st.
If you're looking for indigenous music artists to listen to, check out the UBC online library of Indigenous Music & Dance.
We are also participating once again in the Canadian Music Class Challenge (This year will be a bit different; for more info, click the link).
