Prince Albert’s St.Mary High can toot its own horn.
The school band rose above the pack to make the top 10 in CBC’s Canadian Music Class Challenge. Thousands of students from 500 music classes nationwide initially entered the mix
“It’s nice just to see our little school and our little city represented at a national level, so the validation is really exciting,” St. Mary music teacher Kayleigh Skomorowksi told paNOW.
She conducted the full ensemble of mainly Grade 10 and 11 students who performed the CBC Olympic theme music. Students were also involved in the videoing of the piece which they then submitted to the competition.
