I'd like to thank Mr. Samotowka, Mr. Goldberg and Dr Grant for hosting our concert on Monday night. We heard a variety of pieces from the intermediate Strings and Band classes, Grade 3/4 Recorder Ensemble and the Grove Machine Club. We all know the importance of music education and we are very proud of the music events that took place at the school this year, including: 

-Grade 6 Jump Start Music Camp-October 5th
-O'Canada performance at the Marlie's game on November 30th
-Middle School Concert on December 16th
-Primary/Junior Concert on January 30th
-Grade 6 to 8 Kiwanis Music Festival in February 2014
-Humber College Jazz Performance on May 5th
-Spring Concert on June 2nd
-Toronto Summer Music Camp

I'd also like to thank Student Council for organizing the school-wide Amazing Race yesterday. The grade 1-8 students had a great time finishing their activities. It was a great community builder! Thanks to Mr. Ross, Ms. Chandra and Mr. Littlejohn for being the staff advisors.

I'd also like to thank Mrs. Hall for being my dance partner over the last few months. We had the pleasure of taking our Folk Dance Club to a Folk Dance Festival on Tuesday night. The club performed 13 songs and they should be very proud of their efforts!

Remember, tomorrow is a PA Day and there is no school. Teachers will be marking and completing report cards.

Completing Amazing Race!
