Fine Arts Celebrated!

The past two weeks have been a busy time for the fine arts at KHS.  Last week was "Celebrate the Arts" featuring the Drama club's "The Girl with the Golden Locks," Foods 20/30's decadent desserts at intermission, CTS and Art courses' visual displays of projects, and intermission music by the Sr. Band students.  The students worked very hard to prepare for this event and as a result it was highly entertaining.

Tuesday night was the Spring Concert for the music students of KHS.  Highlights included Star Wars, Rolling in the Deep, Eye of the Tiger (with guest performer Mrs. Cey), Radioactive, Best Day of My Life, and of course the Gr. 7 right of passage: Power Rock!  The grande finale had all 123 music students on stage performing Happy by Pharrell.  It was a smashing success!

Here is a taste of the finale, enjoy!

CTS Digital Media creation

Students in Mrs. Stromberg's digital media class are learning to use the Stykz program. This particular video, created by grade 11 student Will F., has 3906 frames at 20 frames per second and took about 12 hours of class time. That is patience and talent!
 

During the month of March Foods 20/30 has been learning how to create a business. Janet Paul of the Regional Business accelerator presented to our class, followed by local business owners who provided the class with real world examples and inspiration. Rhonda Headon of The Cheesiry, Amanda Amundrud of the Root: Community Emporium and Trisha Le of The East Market Noodle House left us feeling inspired and driven to try our hand at a Food Business venture. Students of Mrs Harty-Blank's  were divided into 6 groups and created a small food business.

 On March 26 and 27 they sold a sampling of their products at lunch and on april 2 they will be presenting their small business ideas in " The Den" to a panel of d"Dragons". We are pleased to have Mr. Sherbinin, Mr. Venance, Janet Paul and Lloydminster's deputy-mayor Chris Mcquid come in to offer feedback on the business proposals. " Chose a job that you like, and you'll never have to work again!"
