Grade 4 GDM musicians take to the stage to sing and perform
The Chorus mesmerized us with their beautiful rendition of "What If?," arranged by Teresa Jennings. Their harmonies and voices filled the room with pure magic.
Not to be outdone, the Grade 4 Band wowed the audience with their impressive rhythmic skills while playing "Ode to Joy" by the legendary Beethoven. Their performance truly struck a chord with everyone present.
We also have exciting news for the future! This marked the last time our talented students performed on risers in the cafeteria, as next year, we look forward to the completion of a fully constructed stage off of the gymnasium. This means even grander performances and more incredible memories for our budding musicians!
We couldn't be prouder of our Grade 4 musicians for their dedication and hard work. They've shown immense growth and talent throughout the year, and we can't wait to see what they achieve next.
A special shout-out to the students, their families, and our amazing music teachers for their unwavering support. Thank you for making this concert a resounding success!
