Welcome back everyone!  It has been a great past few weeks and it is shaping up to be another fantastic year!  So here is a quick update for what is happening in the music and dance world here at Confederation Park……

The Intermediate Concert Choir, grades 4 – 7, rehearse Mondays & Wednesdays at lunch.   I will keep you informed of upcoming performances.                                                       Recorder Toot-Tutoring sessions are also available at recess on Mondays & Wednesdays.  All you have to do is let me know if you would like to come in and play your recorder.  Bring a friend if you want to.  Relax and make music!  I will also be there for any extra help, or I will just play along with you!                                                                                 Uke Club – Yes, I would like to start a very small ukulele club for grades 6 & 7.  This small group will meet Thursday mornings at 8:00 in the music room.  If you are interested to learn how to play the ukulele, PRACTISE the ukulele at home, and sing along with me on Thursday mornings then this club is for you.  Let me know if you are interested in joining.

Great job today Dance Club!  Loved how it all came back to you.  I will pass on your Dance Festival certificates to your class room teacher next week.  Also, there will be a year end school DVD available for purchase that will include your performance at the District Festival of Dance!

We will be performing “Nachna” at our community gathering on Wednesday, June 4th.  Please bring your costume to school.  We will find some time to run it once in the morning before we perform.

Division Four students took advantage of today’s beautiful weather and practised their recorders outside.  Such a great way to make music!  Good work today Division Four!  That was fun!

Check out the DANCE CLUB page in this blog!  Our dancers know how to have fun!  Congratulations again!  Our MJ/Bhangura remix was a hit!
