Rooms 4 & 6 Present...


Students in Rooms 4 & 6 spent some time learning this song last week which they recorded and presented at our Kindness Challenge assembly on Friday!


Kind-Hearted Hand (words & music by Peter Seltzer)







Grade 4 & 5's go to the Theatre!

On Monday morning students in grades 4 and 5 were treated to a fantastic performance of Peter Pan Jr. at the Westwood Theatre. Students were wowed with the music, acting, costumes and dancing that SJASD students  (including Bryn, Charlea, Rebecca & Skylar from Linwood!) have worked so hard to learn for several months! 

All students in grades 3, 4, & 5 are invited to audition in early spring to be a part of this fantastic experience! Mrs. Wurch will hand out information as soon as it is available for next year's show!

Congratulations to all of the cast and especially to 
Bryn, Charlea, Rebecca & Skylar!

MBCI Grade 8 Band & Choir Comes to Linwood!

Students and staff at Linwood were given a special treat today as MBCI's Grade 8 band and choir performed for us! Under the direction of Mr. G. Cooper (Toby Cooper's dad), the band surprised us with pieces from Star Wars, Indiana Jones along with other favourites. The choir beautifully demonstrated what our future choristers could be a part of if they continue to sing! 

Linwood would like to thank Mr. Cooper for arranging for his band and choir to come and entertain us today! We really enjoyed the performance!

Room 6 Presents Earth Day Helper

Room 6 performed the song Earth Day Helper at the Linwood Earth Day assembly. We had to practice the song a lot and we tried to sing our best! We put a lot of effort into learning the song and actions. Room 6 invites you to listen and we are sure you will agree that we did a great job! Enjoy!!

Room 8 Presents "Spring Flowers"

Room 8 created their own song called Spring Flowers in music class today! They experimented with the rainstick to create the sound of rain and they created their own middle section using spring flower names which they used to improvise on the glockenspeils. We are hoping that their beautiful music will encourage the May flowers to bloom!
