PLAY! 2021 Finale

 


Back in April, Stevenson had a couple of student volunteers, Ilya (Room 5), Haylee (Room 12), and Ali (Room 11), who came and rehearsed a single part for the Finale performance that is showcasing today!  They did an amazing job and a shout out to them today for their participation in this exciting performance that will be shared across our province.  Their video submissions resulted in this amazing, virtual performance! This final video is a representation of the high quality music programs in elementary schools across Manitoba. The students in this video demonstrate exceptional focus, precision, musicianship, and dedication to doing their very best at "making music together, while we are apart". We had over 40 Manitoba students, representing 18 Manitoba schools (several from our division), making music "the Orff way"!

Play! 2021. From May 31 to June 11 we are celebrating Elementary Music Education in Manitoba through a new, virtual format.   Thank-you to the Manitoba Orff Chapter for all your work in advocating music education in our province.  We can still make music together while we are apart!

And thank-you to our Principal, Ms. Couch and Vice-Principal, Jackie Gagne, our Winnipeg Jets Hockey Academy Coordinator, Janelle Forcand, and our very own students performing in the Friday Finale: Ilya, Hailey and Ali!
