Band Camp Information

UPDATED LIST BELOW:  THANK YOU!

I’m really happy with the number of EWS students who will be attending summer band camp this year!

I’m finalizing all intermediate and senior band camp registrations today, and it would be very helpful if you could check the list below to ensure I haven’t omitted anyone or made any mistakes while transferring information from the paper and online forms to this alphabetical master list. Please double-check that your student is signed up for the correct instrument (especially if they’ve switched to saxophone or percussion) and the appropriate camp level.

If you notice an error on the list, please send me an email so I can correct it as soon as possible. Thank you so much!

Note: I’ll be meeting with the new saxophone players on Wednesday to discuss camp levels. Beginners (mornings only) are not expected to have any prior experience on the saxophone. Intermediates (full days) should be able to play comfortably at a grade 8 band level. I spoke with students today to explain this, and they can let me know where they’d like to be placed (depending on how much work they want to put in over the summer!) when we meet.

Band Camp forms for intermediates (2025-26 grade 8’s) and seniors (2025-26 grades 9 and 10) are available in the band room. You can now pay through SchoolCash, or by bringing a cheque or cash to the main office. The deadline has been extended to Friday, June 13th. As I explained to students, band camp is the best summer camp deal on PEI, and paying for equivalent small group music lessons would be VERY expensive. It would be great to have a as many EWS students at the camp this year as possible!

Please see the MAY 21st post for all of the band camp details.

Grade 8 Band Trip – Tuesday, June 3rd

On Tuesday morning, the Grade 8 band students will travel to Bluefield to make some music with the Grade 10 band. We will be leaving EWS at 10:00 AM. Students will need to bring their instruments and sheet music to school, but uniforms are not required.

After the rehearsal, we will head to Charlottetown for lunch and bowling, and we will return to EWS by 2:00 PM.

The cost of the bus and bowling will be covered, but students will need to bring a lunch, or money to purchase lunch at McDonald’s.

Hi everyone,

I just want to send a big thank you to all of our students and families for making our year-end band concert such a fantastic night!

To our talented band members – your hard work and growth truly showed on stage. I’m so proud of the music you made together and how far you’ve come this year.

A special shout-out to our MCs and soloists – you added something really special to the performance, and your confidence and preparation did not go unnoticed!

And to our amazing families – thank you for your continued support and for helping make nights like this possible.

Have a great weekend! Alison

The students have been working hard and we are looking forward to performing our final concert of the year on Tuesday night! Students are asked to bring instruments and music to school on Tuesday. Each band will have a short run-through of their concert music at some point during the school day.
