WELCOME MISS YOSHI!!!

A big welcome to our new violin/viola teacher Miss Yoshi!!
She will be teaching some of the beginners - starting Wednesday!

Miss Yoshimura was raised in a small town in rural Ontario.  She moved to the city to go to school in Toronto where she completed her Bachelors of Education.  She also attended the University of Western's Honors Music Education Program.  Her students are encouraged to learn to appreciate music and she strives to teach her students the joy of learning and playing music. 

Miss Yoshi plays with Miss Currie and myself in the Rose Orchestra.  We look forward to seeing you at the concert on Saturday!!
