Formal Music Lessons

Students in grades 1 to 3 receive formal Music lessons, learn to read Music and play the recorder.

Instrumental Band

At the grade 4 level, students are introduced to the instrumental band program. Band classes emphasize proper instrument techniques and correct musical terminology. Students have the option of either renting or purchasing a musical instrument. The students frequently perform for fellow students and parents, as well as participate in Music competitions outside the school.

Kiwanis Music Festival

The Toronto Kiwanis organization was founded in 1917 and each spring the TCPS stage band participates in the Kiwanis Music Festival. Our band is comprised of some of our best music students from grades 5 through 12. Schools from all parts of the GTA come to compete in this renowned festival. By performing for judges, this is an excellent opportunity for the band students to demonstrate their ability and dedication.
