Last week, our Grade 6-8 band and choir students h Last week, our Grade 6-8 band and choir students had an incredible opportunity to travel to Orlando to learn at Disney's Imagination Campus with Ms. Davis and Ms. Klares.

Band and choir students dove into an immersive workshop exploring how Disney harnesses the power of music in storytelling, in business, and throughout their theme parks. Beyond the classroom, they experienced the magic firsthand with park visits, a Cirque du Soleil show, and unforgettable performances by marching bands and an exceptional a cappella choir.

It was a trip full of inspiration, learning, and lasting memories.
