I want to wish all of my students and their families a wonderful and healthy summer! We will see you all back in the Fall, making music together in the context of our “new normal” 🙂

Leaving elementary school and heading off to high school is a big step! Thank you for being the leaders, the change makers, and the wonderful human beings that you are – we will miss you next year at Aubrey! For a trip down memory lane, here is a link below to the Lion King Jr. to which you all made huge contributions. Continue to find what makes you truly happy – in the process you will change the lives of others around you in a positive way. Hakuna matata, my friends!

Flight of the Hummingbird
Remember the amazing opera production about “dukduktiya” (the hummingbird) that came to our school in January?! Vancouver Opera has recorded their show and has sent us a link so we can watch it again and take part in some activities that we can try at home. There is a “sound walking” activity to try on a beautiful day, drama activities, and also the short film “Haida Manga” to review, that we enjoyed together, about each one of us doing our part.
