We are excited that once again KSMA student families will have the opportunity to participate in the Oxfam Musical Marathon.  Through many different types of endeavours, Oxfam works to eradicate poverty worldwide.   It is so exciting that our students can have the opportunity to  use their music to directly make an important positive difference in the lives of others!

In order to participate, each student is responsible for raising a minimum of $400, which will go directly toward Oxfam‘s relief efforts.   Funds will be raised during the month of March, to be turned into to Ms. Lan no later than April 1.

Our requested date/time for playing at the marathon is Sunday, April 17, 12:00-2:00 (we will play for approximately one hour).

Service for others was one of Dr. Suzuki’s most strongly held beliefs.   How wonderful for us that we can use our music in this way!

2016 started off in an exciting way for everyone at KSMA.   Our New Year’s Concert showcased the work that each team of students had been doing in their fall term group classes.   How wonderful to see that teamwork in action!   More than one parent said Pachelbel Canon, the concert’s Grand Finale, was so beautiful it brought them to tears.   Congratulations to all of the students, parents and teachers for all of their work that resulted in this celebration of the New Year.

Each class will be limited to a maximum of 10 students, and priority will be given to siblings of students currently registered at KSMA.
