New U-Rock MARS Awards 2016

Cathy HallesseyNews

Yesterday we were not only proud to watch 45 of our 75 students perform so brilliantly on stage, but we were extra proud to give out some very well deserved achievement awards.

5-Year Achievement Award:
Liam Marelic (15), guitar

Our new MARS (Most Awesome Rock Star) awards are based on a combination of most improved technical skills, constant willingness to learn, and overall enthusiasm during lessons and participation at U-Rock events.

The students chosen for the MARS awards regularly practice, often praise others for their musical efforts, go out of their way to show true team spirit and show strong musicianship with leadership qualities.

Guitar – Aidan MacLeod (10). Honourable mention to Kye Guembes (12).

Vocals – Jasmine Beavis (14). Honourable mentions to Kaitlyn Weatherall (15) and Avery Stone (10).
