It has been a busy month. The grade 6 concert band played an excellent performance at our Open House last week. The ensemble playing and focus throughout the evening was outstanding! Thank you for representing Cedar Hill's music program so well.
The grade 8 students welcomed Reynolds fine arts program earlier in the month and were treated to sampling of music and other fine arts exhibits.
This month will focus on end-of-term playing tests and preparing for our spring concerts.
Please mark your calendars for our spring concerts: Tuesday, March 3rd and Wednesday, March 4th.
