Hello Magee Music Community!

We hope that you have been having a great start to the school year! Lots of events have already happened including our music society/music department welcome night, a Magee Music Society shredding and bottle return fundraising event, a jazz band mini festival, and we are about to have our first of many retreats!

Concert Choir will have their retreat at Shaughnessy Heights United Church on Wednesday, October 7th – this will be a wonderful educational and musical event for the concert choir kids filled not only with rehearsal of our music, but also team building activities, mindful meditation, mentoring opportunities, and just a great way to build community with each other!

The Vancouver Schools Music Teachers Association is hosting a Shredding Event on October 17th from 10am-2pm at Lord Byng Secondary! We will have a shredding truck on site as well, so bring your sensitive documents to be shredded by donation – min. $15 per bag, $20 per box

All money earned from space rentals and shredding directly go to benefit events for Secondary Music Students in the Vancouver District!

Please consider supporting this great community event!

Our First Major Concert will be on Tuesday November 3rd @ 6:30pm Pacific Spirit United Church! Come see the Concert Choir, Chamber Choir, Wind Ensemble, Junior Band, MSO, Beginner Band, and Senior Strings! This will be a fun and entertaining show highlighting our Choir, Band, and String program! Admission will be by donation and all donations will go toward the Pacific Sprit United Church Scholarships given out to Magee Graduates of 2026-2027!

Thank you for your continued support and we hope to see you at one or all of our events! Please check out our calendar for more information!

Most Sincerely,

Greg Quan and Keith Ollerenshaw

Artistic Directors of the Magee Music Department
