Featured Project

McTavish Music Department

Nearly half of our school population is involved in our music programming, which includes Concert Band, Jazz Band, Guitar, Glee, Show Choir, and Musical Theatre. Students perform regularly in concerts, Open Mic nights, and public events throughout the community, and also have the opportunity to travel to perform in national and international festivals. We have staged productions of Beauty and the Beast Jr, Annie Jr, Seussical Jr, The Wiz, Aladdin Jr, and Into the Woods, and our band and choir students have travelled to perform in the parks of Disneyland, Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, and, most recently, New York City.
