Music Travels...

Over Easter Break 10 Sr. High Music students from KHS got together with students from WHS, Irma, and Provost to form an Honour Band that travelled to Ireland for 9 days.




Sights they visited included places such as St. Patrick's Cathedral, Trinity College, The Ring of Kerry, The Cliffs of Moher, Kilarney National Park, the National Stud Farm, and Blarney Castle.  The band also performed 4 times in places such as the Matchmaker Hotel in Lisdoonvarna, The Bog Museum, Bunratty Castle, and at Blarney Castle (shown above).


While KHS shared a bit about Canada, they were able to soak in Irish traditions, history, culture, food, and of course music and dance!


This was the 5th International Trip for KHS and the BTPS Honour Band.  They occur every two years, so keep an eye out for the upcoming 2017 trip!
