Why take a trip? 

Cultural experience-based trips provide students the opportunity to see first hand that which we listen to, discuss and learn about throughout their musical education. A trip to New York City provides students a heightened cultural experience, meets outcomes, gives students the chance to work with industry professionals, shows the potential for performing arts outside of high school and in life, and heightens their independence. 

This website will be updated with relevant information for the trip, alongside the Google Classroom for students (parents may accept the email invitation to join the class as well.) Check back regularly so you don't miss anything!

Please, reach out to Ms. Penwell apenwell@gnspes.ca if you have any questions. 

Ms. Penwell will be using the text service, Remind, to help get information out about the trip, fundraising and any upcoming trip-related events.
