CBC’s 2017 Canadian Music Class Challenge

To kick off our Intermediate Wellness Day on Friday, November 21, 2017, the whole school came together to perform our cover of “End of an Era” by The Strumbellas for the CBC’s 2017 Canadian Music Class Challenge. Every year, CBC Music in association with MusiCounts, challenges music classes around the country to choose a Canadian song from a pre-approved list of songs to perform and submit to their contest. The goals of the contest are for students to learn Canadian music, to draw attention to music programs, and to reinforce the importance of music in a well-rounded education.

We loved The Strumbella’s music video for this song so much that we decided to recreate the living room party in our gym and invite the whole school, from kindergarten to Grade 8, to sing along! The result is awesome! Please check out our submission and share in our celebration of song and community here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu-TDjBJnv0&t=2s

Thanks, again, to our incredible staff, students, and choir members for their efforts, enthusiasm and creativity in pulling this off! Thank you CBC for being the catalyst for this awesome endeavor! Enjoy the party!
