Kindergarten sang their way to gold<br />
by K. Smawley<br />
The Kindergarten to<br />
Grade 6 classes travelled to<br />
Coronation for the annual<br />
music festival on Wed.<br />
March 13.<br />
Mrs. Kneller and her<br />
music classes always enter<br />
into a couple of categories<br />
and it was another fun year<br />
for the students.<br />
The K-2 classes sang two<br />
songs together. One was<br />
called ‘Aikendrum’ and featured<br />
the students playing<br />
the sticks, drums and<br />
triangles.<br />
Their other song was<br />
called ‘Do What’s Right’, a<br />
song about making good<br />
choices instead of taking the<br />
easiest path in life.<br />
Both their songs were<br />
awarded gold and the students<br />
were delighted to have<br />
all their hard work pay off!<br />
The 3-6 classes also performed<br />
together. They sang<br />
two songs, ‘We Are<br />
Canadian’ and ‘God Is On<br />
The Move’, the first had students<br />
playing recorders,<br />
tambourines, bucket drums<br />
and bells, while the second<br />
song was a beautifully<br />
moving piece with lots of different<br />
vocal levels. Both<br />
their songs were awarded<br />
silver.<br />
The Grade 3/4 class also<br />

seat in the final tournament<br />
of the year, Central Western<br />

At CARA on March 2, the<br />
girls battled hard to post<br />
wins against the Donalda<br />
and Erskine teams in round<br />
robin play.<br />
They then faced off<br />
against William E. Hay from<br />
Stettler in the final match<br />
and played hard but ultimately<br />
came home with<br />
second place.<br />
CWAJHAA was held at<br />
Rocky Mountain House on<br />
Wed. March 13 to finish off<br />
their year.<br />
The tournament was<br />
made up of the final four of<br />
the eight top teams from<br />
their league around the central<br />
western area.<br />
The girls lost both games<br />
at the final tournament,<br />
first against Destiny<br />

and doubles having lots<br />
of playing time during the<br />
full day.<br />

with a tally of eight<br />
gold, six silver and five<br />

and work towards in<br />
their music classes.<br />
