Comments From SING's Previous School Workshops
SING! School Workshops have been called "life changing" by teachers.
“This is the second year we have attended the workshop and my students, once again, had a wonderful time and came away with new and lasting music knowledge and experiences. The quality of artists and performances were exceptional, as well as being both fun and informational...” -- Megan Wesley, Music Teacher, York Collegiate Institute
“The events that unfolded over the festival were truly life changing moments for my students. Thanks again for an amazing experience my students will never forget.” -- Christopher Uchida, Emily Carr Secondary School
“The SING! Festival Education Day was a great experience for the students. They had the opportunity to learn from world class artists as they took part in the workshops. The workshops were very engaging, interactive and the students thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Some even stepping out of their comfort zone to sing in front of the workshop participants. The Q&A was a great chance for students to learn more about the music industry.” - Abby Pierce, Teacher, Duke of Connaught School
We look forward to seeing you there!
