Band Update

Fundraiser!
The orders have been sent, so we should see them in 3 weeks.

Remembrance Day Assembly!  Tuesday, November 9, 10:00am.
The 8-9 Band and 7-9 Vocal Ensemble will be performing.  The students must wear black shirts and black pants and black shoes.  I want to see how it looks to have everyone in black!

Also, the grade 4-5 choir will be performing.  They just need to wear something nice.

Practicing!
More students need to be taking their instruments home more often.  We seem to be doing some of the same skills in class over and over again.  We need to move forward:  get practising!!!!
