Remembrance Day

Thank you to all of the grade 9 band students who performed this morning for the school Remembrance Day assembly. The music was beautiful and the students were focused and respectful. Well done everyone!

The Grade 9 Band will perform again on Monday, November 11th. Students have been asked by the Legion organizers to arrive at the Kingston Legion in New Haven (near Gass’s General Store) by 10:00 a.m. Once again, band uniforms are required. Students should also dress for the weather, and should bring mittens or gloves to keep their hands warm between songs. I will provide clothespins to keep music from blowing off the stands!

The school will be open all day tomorrow (Wednesday) in case any students need to pick up their instruments.

If any students or parents are available to help load music equipment (music stands and large percussion instruments) into the rental van at East Wiltshire, and unload again after the service, your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me at ampeters@edu.pe.ca if you and/or your student can help.

In the event that the organizers decide that weather will make it impossible to hold the ceremony outdoors, the service will be moved to the East Wiltshire gymnasium. Please check your email and/or the band blog on the weekend to be sure that no changes have been made. I will also post a notification in Google Classroom if there is a location change.
