Thank you PTO!

The opera has come and gone, and what a great day it was! A huge thank you to the PTO for sponsoring this event for the past 6 years. The students enjoyed the opera and thought it was the best ever. A big thank you to the teachers and Ms. Dolezal who allowed their students to dress as pirates, it made the day a very special.

Opera for the Young has enjoyed coming to Longfellow the past few years, they always compliment us on how well we sing.

Here are a few student comments:
"I loved this opera and I hope you come back!" S. Grade 3
"I always thought opera was boring, but now I see it is exciting." D. Grade 3
"I loved the singing, because you're talented and good." Annon. Grade 5
"I liked the clothes and props you used." H. Grade 5
"I really liked Frederic and the part when the Major General was sad" D. Grade 2
"I loved the performance and the acting was very nice." E. Grade 2
"I liked when Fredric found out he was five." It was a very cool play. A. Grade 4
"I liked the song about the weather, and the part about 'how stealthily the pirate creeps'" Annon Grade 4

A huge BRAVO, to Longfellow staff and students!
