On Monday afternoon, the YHS community gathered at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts for the “Celebration of Community”.
This annual event is always a favourite, as it’s a treat to hear our budding musicians perform in such a wonderful venue – the sound is glorious. This year, the event was dedicated to Ms. Ruddy, as it is her last year as Head of School.
The program featured performances from our junior and senior students, including two outstanding solo performances from Samantha, Gr. 11 and Breeshey, Gr. 12. Please watch all the highlights below.
The afternoon was interspersed with readings (Saskia, Gr. 8 and Rainy, Gr. 9), as well as carols sung by all attendees, including “Jingle Bell Rock”, “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed” Reindeer” and “The First Noel”. The sing-a-longs always puts everyone in the holiday spirit.
Special thanks to Leith Wheeler Investments for sponsoring this event. See all the photos here.
