HONOUR ENSEMBLES ANNOUCEMENT

After a long and very difficult decision process we have come to the conclusion that it will not be possible to hold our annual BCMEA Honour Ensembles in the 2020-2021 school year. The Honour Ensembles team sincerely hoped to make this opportunity available for students this school year, but the BC Ministry of Education’s Provincial COVID-19 Health & Safety Guidelines for K-12 Settings states "In-person inter-school events (including competitions, tournaments and festivals) should not occur at this time” and, therefore, the program cannot go forward for the foreseeable future.

We sincerely appreciate the support we receive each and every year from the students and teachers across the province and we look forward to the time that this program can be offered again with its opportunities for student and teacher learning and collaboration.

Please stay safe and healthy,
Janet Wade, Carrie Taylor, Katy Kerr, Imran Amarshi, Carmella Luvisotto, and Tristan Clausen
