Congratulations to all of our Blackville students who
participated in the Miramichi Regional Music Festival last week. The vocal duet of Cassandra Waugh and Ashlyn
Moody, our Blackville Elementary Choir, our Blackville School Girls’ Choir, and
St. Raphael’s Youth Choir all received Gold Seals from festival
adjudicators. The Blackville Elementary
Choir and the Blackville School Girls’ Choir were chosen by the choral
adjudicator to represent the Miramichi area in the school choir category at the
New Brunswick Provincial Music Festival which will be held this year at Mount
Allison University in Sackville in early June.
Our choirs will be making a recording of their two festival pieces to
forward to provincial choral adjudicators.
Miss Frenette and all of the choir
students would like to thank Mrs. Margaret Craig who did such an excellent job
of accompanying all of our choirs at the festival. We would also like to thank all of the parent
volunteers who traveled to and from the festival with us on the bus, yours
assistance was greatly appreciated.
Thanks also to our bus driver, Marshall Arbeau, for patiently
transporting us to and from the festival as well as the final Concert of the
Stars last Friday evening.
