Hello Everyone,
Community Announcement:
As many of you know, I belong to Westwinds Music Society, which is an adult group that has concert bands, choirs, and jazz ensembles. I am involved in Concert band and Choir. I have never offered the chance for students to come to my concerts as often they are in the evening and the concert band I am in usually plays last. This makes for a late evening for children. Some of the students expressed an interest in seeing me perform. So. . .
On May 13th there is a free concert at Park 96. This is our Year-End Family Fun Day. It starts at noon and goes to about 4pm. All the Westwinds Concert Bands and Choirs will be performing in this beautiful outdoor venue.
There are food trucks, beverage tent, and other fun activities. You would just need to bring a chair and come and enjoy the music.
I do not have a schedule as yet for this day. I will let you know as soon as I know what times I am either singing or playing.

Grade 2’s have been learning about communities across Canada. As we explored ways of life in the Arctic, we were shocked to learn that a fire had devastated the community school in Kugaaruk, Nunavut. Not just a center for education, the school served as the community center with the arena, breakfast and lunch program, and special events. Grade 2’s at Prince of Wales have banded together, and following the design thinking process, explored how to best support this community.
To support Kugaaruk School, Grade 2’s will host Intermural Floor Hockey in the gym from April 10th- April 20th from12:00-12:30PM and welcome all donations (suggested donation is $2). Ms. Konno will be creating heartfelt cards with students in Room 9. The Grade 2’s also welcome cash donations in support of the community of Kugaaruk.
Cash donations will be accepted from April 3rd to April 21st.
Please see below for your Grade Schedule. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].
We thank you in advance for your support!
