The Sir George Simpson Music Program is a dynamic place where students learn and develop skills as musicians and performers. Students choose from a wide variety of brass, woodwind and percussion instruments and begin the exciting journey to becoming instrumentalists. Many opportunities are planned throughout the year for students to participate in. Our year calendar looks like this:

Aside from the technical skills learned, students experience a team-like atmosphere where everyone is a highly-valued member and an integral part of the success of the group. Most students take all three grade levels in their junior high school years, making close friendships and memories they will never forget.
