GITLAXT’AAMIKS - Passing on traditional knowledge, Nisga’a Lisims Government president Mitchell Stevens with grandson Gavin Adams at Nisga’a New Year Hobiyee 2016 celebrations held Feb. 26-27 in the Nass Valley and hosted by the village of Gitlaxt’aamiks.

TERRACE - This Skeena NDP MP Nathan Cullen thinks there’s a deal to be made which could end the opposition and controversy surrounding the proposed Lelu Island location for the planned PacificNorthwest LNG project. That change would be for the company to move to another location. Cullen even has another location in mind – the one on Ridley Island selected by the BG Group for its Prince Rupert LNG project. “I’ll even buy the coffee,” said Cullen of his offer to host a meeting of top executives from the companies and decision makers. Speaking last week, Cullen said the proposal is based on two factors – the first being the opposition to Lelu Island and the second being the recent purchase by Shell of the BG Group. “I was never sure why they had picked Lelu Island in the first place,” said Cullen in reference to its location within the salmon-sensitive Skeena River estuary. He added that he has asked Petronas, the Malaysian government-owned corporation which is the lead company involved in Pacific NorthWest LNG but has failed to get an answer. “I know both the federal and provincial governments wanted them there. Actually, the federal government helped by changing legislation.” Ever since Lelu Island surfaced as Pacific NorthWest LNG’s preferred location for its LNG plant and export terminal, opposition has grown based on worries of possible effects on Skeena River salmon.

Although a federal environmental review released for public comment last month suggested there would be no effects on salmon populations, opposition to the project remains among some First Nations groups, including the Lax Kw’alaams who have Lelu Island within their traditional territory, and among environmental groups. Cullen says that with Shell now buying BG Group, the Prince Rupert LNG project may not proceed simply because Shell is the lead partner in the LNG Canada project at Kitimat which is significantly further along in the development phase. That would make the Ridley Island location available, he said. Cullen did caution that any shift in Pacific NorthWest LNG location would require a complete environmental review, and he noted that companies cannot be compelled to undertake massive shifts in project plans. But those same companies could generate a tremendous amount of goodwill and cooperation from various parties, Cullen added. “If there’s ever a region that needs economic hope, this is it,” said Cullen. The MP even suggested there might be a role for the federal government to play in any project location change inasmuch as it needs to promote economic development. He also said anything he might be able to do would acknowledge conversations among the Lax Kwa’alaams and the Metlakatla into locations of prospective LNG projects. “I would be really cognizant of the process they’re working through,” he said.

Our current project design (below, left) does not require any dredging to accommodate LNG carriers at our marine terminal. A previous design (below, right) had proposed significant dredging at the marine terminal.

Current Design

Previous Design

Trestle Suspension bridge

We want to thank the local First Nations and community members who have provided feedback to us and the Government of Canada throughout our federal environmental assessment. Your feedback has helped us to continually improve the design of our facility. Will PNW LNG be dredging in order to accommodate LNG carriers?

No. LNG carriers will berth in naturally deep water in Chatham Sound, requiring no dredging at the marine terminal. Why is dredging no longer required at the marine terminal?

Based on feedback from federal regulators, First Nations and the community, PNW LNG revised the marine infrastructure design to relocate the marine terminal to naturally deep water and eliminated the need for dredging at the LNG carrier berths.

What has PNW LNG done to protect salmon habitat?

By relocating the marine terminal, we have eliminated the need for significant dredging at the LNG carrier berths. In addition, as part of our environmental assessment application, we have proposed fish and fish habitat mitigation measures to protect local salmon and other marine life during construction and operations. What is the current status of the project?

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) recently released its draft environmental assessment report and proposed conditions for Pacific NorthWest LNG (PNW LNG). Will there be any dredging for the project? To review the draft CEAA report and conditions, please visit We have significantly reduced the dredging required. We will need bit.ly/DraftCEAAReport. to do a small amount of dredging in advance of the construction of our Material Offloading Facility (MOF). The MOF would be used How can I provide feedback on the CEAA process? to accommodate cargo ships delivering equipment and materials CEAA is accepting comments from the public until March 11, 2016. Comments can be emailed to to our facility. Before any dredging occurs, we would work with GNLPacificNorthwestLNG@ceaa-acee.gc.ca. local First Nations and the regulators.

Rupert lead test prompts mandatory water monitoring By Shannon Lough THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The discovery of intolerable levels of lead in four Prince Rupert schools may result in systemic changes. British Columbia is on its way to joining Ontario as the second province in Canada to routinely monitor metals in schools. In Ontario, schools have to submit a sample once a year to test for lead. A letter from the Deputy Minister of Education was sent to all superintendents on Feb. 24 at the request of Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall asking school districts to work with local health authorities to establish a plan to evaluate water quality, especially in schools built before the 1989 revision of the BC Plumbing Code restricting the use of lead in potable water lines. On Feb. 16 students were sent home with letters informing parents that mitigation measures had been put in place after Northern Health found elevated levels

of lead in the water at Pineridge Elementary, Ecole Roosevelt Park Community School, Conrad Elementary and Prince Rupert Middle School. A long-term management plan is in the works for School District 52. Superintendent Sandra Jones received the Deputy Minister of Education’s letter yesterday and is sorting out the details of the plan, which should include evaluating facilities based on age and water supply, carrying out testing at priority facilities, mitigating risks, regularly re-sampling to verify effectiveness and communicating findings. The schools in the district are already doing manual flushing every morning as part of the mitigation strategy. Moving forward we’d like to move into an automated flushing system, but obviously that takes a little bit of time to put into place but that’s where we’re headed,” Jones said. The schools are also in the midst of replacing all the water fountains with more \’93robust

Other schools in the district will have the same water filter. fountains that filter everything, Jones said adding the filters cost $300 a piece. But it’s what we have to do. School District 52 will also set up routine water testing.

“We should have looked at this sooner,” said MLA Jennifer Rice who added that she is frustrated with the lack of education over the issue. A Kitimat school

found unacceptable levels of lead in its water in 2012. The BC Centre for Disease Control published a report in 2014 to follow up on the incident. The report stated that “younger children

may be particularly vulnerable due to their relatively higher exposures and absorption rates and greater neurological vulnerability.” The report’s findings highlighted “the need for routine monitoring of drinking in schools” and that schools should flush their pipes before each school day. The incident in Kitimat and the report didn’t cause enough steam to fire up concrete change. It wasn’t until two new medical health officers, Dr. Raina Fumerton and Dr. Sandra Allison, began working for Northern Health that the water was tested. “Ensuring safe drinking water for all people that live in the north to me is an extremely important priority,” Allison said. The water quality committee for Northern Health was working with aggressive water and trying to understand the impacts to the northern regions. They reached out to the schools to get current testing results. Allison said the biggest concern is young children and pregnant

women as lead consumption can affect development. Even if the schools provide filtered water, lead can be found in water sitting stagnant in pipes in homes built before 1989. General manager of Saanich Plumbing and Heating in Prince Rupert, Jerry Kurka, said approximately 60 per cent of domestic pipes in Prince Rupert homes are made with lead or copper. Northern Health recommends people run their taps until the water is cold to get fresh water from city pipe. Allison said this is not the first time there has been an issue with lead and she wants it to remain top of mind. She suggested having a lead awareness week once a year to remind people to flush their taps if they live in older homes. The routine testing at the schools will remain the responsibility of the school district, but Northern Health will be an ongoing resource in the process. “When they get their testing we can help with the interpretation,” Allison said.

Port Edward council discusses 50th anniversary party DISTRICT SUPPORTS PRMHA, MIDDLE SCHOOL; CANNERY TO HOST PARTY By Shannon Lough THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PORT EDWARD - A short and sweet District of Port Edward Council meeting wrapped up on Feb. 23 with its final business for February, passing two motions offering financial support. The District agreed to give $250 in gift certificates to the Prince Rupert Minor Hockey Association (PRMHA) to support a tournament the novice house division is hosting in the first week of March. Another $250 will be offered as a gift certificate to the Prince Rupert Middle School concert band for an ‘80s and ‘90s themed dance fundraiser and loonie auction that happened on Feb. 27 at the Moose Hall. The school is raising money to send 25 students to Edmonton’s Cantando Music Festival in April. Kristy Tillman, the band director, said the estimated cost will be $1,000 per student. “It’s the first time they’ve gone. This is my tenth year here and we always go to the music festival in Terrace and I thought maybe we’d go a bit further. Now is a good time, they’re performing well,” Tillman said. The manager at Community Futures Pacific Northwest, John Farrell, also attended to announce that the Prince Rupert and District Chamber of Commerce will host a lunch on “responsible development and LNG”. The luncheon took place this past Tuesday, with Port Edward Mayor Dave MacDonald regrettably absent due to illness. “The trip over to Malaysia is what changed my mind,” MacDonald said at the council meeting adding he now feels better about liquefied natural gas

development coming to the area. Councillor Christine Mackenzie also spoke about attending another pro-industry lunch directed at encouraging women to seek equal opportunities when industry, specifically LNG, comes to the North Coast. She was one of the speakers at the Women’s Leadership Network launch on Feb. 18 as a representative of the District. “I’m a believer in it. I see how things have changed when women get on boards and the growth for the boards and the look on mens’ faces, ‘oh I never thought of that’. I think that’s positive for industry, work and community,” Mackenzie said. She has been a councillor for 15 years and has worked with men on numerous boards and she is a strong believer that it can work. “I’ve done it.” “I hope that those women at home and those who can help our community step up and go and get any kind of extra training, build some confidence and just get back out there and be who you really are,” Mackenzie said. The councillors also discussed updates on the upcoming 50th anniversary of the District of Port Edward being incorporated into the regional district. The North Pacific Cannery has been booked for dinner, dances and bands to throw a concert. Rupert band, Triple Bypass will be there, as well as a band from Texas. The East Indian dancers agreed to perform, and the District will also ask the Lion Dancers and First Nations dancers to come. There will be games for the children and people will be bused to the cannery. Planning began last summer, and there is still more fundraising before the event kicks off from June 24 - 25.

Afro Peruvian sounds of soul in Kitimat KITIMAT - The Kitimat Concert Association is proud to present Patricia Cano at 8:00 pm, Friday, March 4, 2015 at the Mount Elizabeth Theatre. Cano brings to Kitimat her particular blend of Afro Peruvian rhythms driven by the groove of jazz and the soul of folk and the blues! Cano was born in Sudbury, Ontario where she grew up in a Peruvi-

an household. After graduating from University of Toronto with a degree in Theatre and Spanish Literature, she spent five years working in Paris (France) with the worldrenowned theatre company Le Théâtre du Soleil, during which time she was sent to Seoul (South Korea) for three months to study traditional South Korean folk singing and drumming. After leaving the

French company, Cano spent seven months in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) listening, playing, singing and feeling her way through the exceptional Carioca music scene! In 2009, Cano launched her singing career here at home in Canada with her debut album called, This is the New World. Co-created in four languages with her Brazilian musical partner, Carlos Bernardo.

The album won “Best Album, Solo Artist” at the 2011 North Ontario Music & Film Award Conference. Cano has also had a long and important artistic collaboration with Tomson Highway, Canada’s premiere Cree playwright and composer. Since 2001, Patricia has toured the world alongside Tomson Highway, singing and performing his songs and

stories in a one-woman cabaret. From Montreal to Rio de Janeiro to Prague and beyond, this collaboration has brought Tomson’s work to thousands of delighted fans. In 2010/11, Cano was invited to join the National Arts Centre’s English Theatre Company and in 2012, she starred in both a Peterborough production, as well as a French National Arts Centre coproduction, of Tomson Highway’s newest onewoman musical, The (Post) Mistress. In May 2013, Cano closed the Montreal festival and most recently performed at Luminato Festival in Toronto. She is currently working on her second album.

Conservation officers search for stolen ram By Margaret Speirs

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - A man convicted of hunting illegally in the Spatzizi Provincial Park was ordered by court to turn over the ram he killed but said he couldn’t because it had been stolen. Jordan Patrick Garbitt of Moberly Lake, B.C. was convicted in Dawson Creek Provincial Court on February 24, 2016 for hunting a stone sheep ram in Spatzizi Provincial Park without a Limited Entry Hunting Authorization. The conviction stems from a two-year investigation where it was alleged that Garbitt and two other hunting partners flew into Coldfish Lake, and killed a stone sheep ram in September 2012. Garbitt, who is a Treaty 8 Indian, claimed the ram was killed within the Treaty 8 area, which Spatzizi Park is not part of. The judge sentenced Garbitt to a $1,000 fine and ordered that he pay an additional $3,500 to the Habitat Conservation Trust Fund. The judge further ordered that Garbitt was prohibited in hunting anywhere outside of the

Treaty 8 area for a period of one year, and that the ram was to be forfeited to the crown. In court, Garbitt told the judge that the ram, which was a finished wall mount as shown in the photo, was stolen. The Conservation Officer Service is asking for the public’s assistance in locating this ram and would like to remind the public that rewards are sometimes available from outside agencies where assis-

tance is provided to an investigation. The ram is permanently marked with Government PIN identification number of H955 which is drilled into the rear of the left horn of the sheep. The horns of sheep have their own characteristics and can sometimes be identified similar to fingerprints. Information can be provided to the BC Conservation Officer Service by calling the

Rupert Children’s Festival hits 25 years By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - For 25 years now, area organizers have been delighting kids of all ages with one of Prince Rupert’s most popular festivals of the year, the Children’s Festival. Organized by Bev Killbery and the Prince Rupert Special Events Society, and sponsored by various businesses in town, this year’s Children’s Fest, taking place on Saturday, March 5 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., offers a whole host of games, activities, food and social fun that children, teens and adults alike can partake in. “Lazer Fish (laser tag) is going to be our entertainment for the event again. I think this will be the fourth year for them,” said Killbery this week. “It covers all ages of kids. It’s not just something for young kids and it’s not just something for older kids. It catches that middle section - probably [ages] six to 14. And the nice thing about Lazer Fish is they gear it so [the games are] age-appropriate when you go in,” Killbery added. Lazer Fish will take place at the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre’s auditorium, with the rest of activities and games occurring in the civic centre’s gymnasium across the hall. A bouncy castle, ‘Hammer ‘n Nails, a tattoo and face paint parlour, wall climbing, Good Times Games’ gaming booth and Angry Birds will all be returning for this year’s festivities. As well, Swirl Art will be making its 25th appearance, having been with Children’s Fest since the festival’s very beginning days. And not only are the games fun and exciting for the wee ones, but they also teach participants valuable lessons. “It’s something we try and attract all families to because a lot of the activities are fun, but they’ve also got a little bit of an educational aspect to them,” Killbery said. “‘Do not hit your thumb with the hammer’. That’s a good message everybody can use.” Good Times Games will be present at Children’s Fest with a table dedicated to card games, table-top games and participants will even have cosplaying opportunities to dress up as their favourite mythical hero or villain. Additionally, hot dogs, juice boxes, fruit and crackers and cheese trays will be on hand to be consumed by hungry festival goers, as well as SnoCones, cotton candy, popcorn and slushies. “Admission is by donation. The only costs that

will be associated is if you purchase something from the canteen. And it’s very reasonable - a hot dog and drink or juice box is around $2, something like that. The bouncy castle may be $2, just so we can keep track of how many kids are going in it, keep the system under control and so we can keep up the maintenance,” Killbery added. “I’d like to thank all the businesses and service organizations because we wouldn’t have lasted 25 years without their generosity in town, whether they’re giving us a donation of cash or services.”

AltaGas, partners bail from small-scale LNG plant plan TERRACE -What has been one of the more promising planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects in the northwest has been shelved. AltaGas of Calgary, the lead Canadian partner in the Douglas Channel LNG project planned for Kitimat, announced Feb. 25 that it and its partners could not find anyone willing to buy the product. “Globally, there is reduced demand for LNG and with a surplus of LNG in the market, and the consortium members were unable to secure offtake agreements,” AltaGas said in a corporate statement. Prices now for LNG are around one-quarter of what they were just two years ago when LNG development fervour was at a peak in the region. Although among the smaller of LNG projects at a projected 2.4 billion cubic metres of natural gas per year to be exported, Douglas Channel LNG was regarded as one of the more feasible.

It was not only less expensive, at a projected $500 million, in comparison to the larger planned projects worth more than $10 billion, it would not have required the construction of a natural gas pipeline because it would have been fed by the existing Pacific Northern Gas line. The project would have seen natural gas super-cooled and liquefied for export on an Asian-built floating platform moored near Kitimat and connected to facilities on land owned by the Haisla Nation and leased to the project. AltaGas had first formed a joint venture with Idemitsu, a leading Japanese energy company, and then added partners EDF Trading, an energy provider, and Exmar NV, an international shipper of petroleum and other products, in developing Douglas Channel LNG. Its projected market had been Japanese customers. The entry point for AltaGas into B.C.’s po-

tential LNG industry began with its purchase of Pacific Northern Gas in late 2011 which provided it with an existing natural gas pipeline. It then took part in buying a first concept for a floating LNG platform near Kitimat out of bankruptcy nearly two years ago, using that as a base to revive the Douglas Channel LNG project. Project economics aside, the project ran into a roadblock last fall when federal customs officials decided the imported LNG floating platform was a ship and tacked on an import duty which would have added $100 million to the project cost. AltaGas then appealed the decision and learned in early February it was successful. But that was not enough to salvage the project, said AltaGas in a statement. “While this decision is positive, and bodes well for deployment of a similar floating liquefaction facilities in the future, the consortium had assumed a 0 per-

cent duty when it began developing the project,” the statement indicated. The company did express satisfaction with what had been achieved, despite the decision to shelve the project. “The milestones achieved by the consortium, including the

permits and duty relief, help prove out the feasibility of developing a floating liquefaction facility in British Columbia,” it said. “Individual consortium members can work with other stakeholders if they so choose to determine whether a simi-

lar project can be developed. AltaGas is very interested in working together or individually with Haisla and others to develop an LNG project.” To date, AltaGas spent $24 million on the project. Skeena NDP MLA

Robin Austin expressed disappointment at the news. “There was an expectation in Kitimat, now that Rio Tinto Alcan has finished its smelter, that this would go ahead,” he said. See LNG Page A11

TERRACE – Murray Hamer and several of the 747 Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron take time out for a photo in front of one of the displays at the Heritage Week celebration in the Terrace Arena Banquet Room Feb. 20. Displays varied from Kitselas masks, bent boxes and stone rubbings to old newspapers, antiques, models of houses and buildings here when Terrace began, and many photos of Eby’s Landing, the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Station and Dorreen. Tom Harris and Friends provided music as entertainment.

Austin added that AltaGas and its partners may not have had the kind of deep pockets needed for a long-term investment. “In all fairness to AltaGas, it is not one of the largest of the [energy] companies and just may not have had the capability to look at an investment which is 25, 30 or 40 years down the road,” he said. “They just may have not been in a position to make such an investment.” Austin was more confident that Shell, the leading partner in the much larger LNG Canada project planned at Kitimat, has the kind of capital base required. “Shell may have postponed its [final investment] decision but it is still spending money,” said Austin of site preparation and other work underway for LNG Canada. Like Austin, Skeena NDP MP Nathan Cullen was also disappointed. “I know we had lobbied hard for customs relief from the CBSA (the Canadian Border Services Agency) and had hoped that would help,” he said. “We had really hoped one of these smaller projects would go ahead but with the markets the way they are, when there is going to be a turnaround is anybody’s guess,” Cullen said. The Haisla Nation would be have been a direct beneficiary of Douglas Channel LNG and its chief councillor Ellis Ross was not surprised given current market conditions. “We will continue to work closely with other project proponents such as LNG Canada as they continue towards making their own final investment decision,” said Ross of the larger Shell-lead project planned for Kitimat. “Despite this particular setback, the Haisla Nation still believes in the benefits for the economy and for our people in liquefied natural gas projects, and will continue to encourage the British Columbia and Canadian governments to move quickly to capture this opportunity for the region.” The shelving of Douglas Channel LNG also affects a second floating platform project envisioned by AltaGas and its partners. The project is called Triton LNG and it would also have been placed in the Kitimat area. It would have been fed by a 24-inch pipeline to be built by PNG and commonly called the “looping project” or “twinning project” because its intended route from outside of Prince George to Kitimat would have closely paralleled the route of PNG’s existing 10-inch line. “Triton was a phase two of Douglas Channel LNG. This project is on hold to be re-evaluated,” said AltaGas.

His best result came in the 400 meter individual medley making the A final in the event (top eight), and placing sixth overall. Dumas also placed eighth in the 1500 meter freestyle. He made the B final (placing in top 9-16) in two more events with 11th in the 400 meter freestyle and 12th in the 200 meter butterfly. Along the way Dumas broke five Northwest BC regional records in the 15 and over boys division.

SMITHERS - The Smithers Steelheads might have won game one in the best-of-three Central Interior Hockey League finals against the Williams Lake Stampeders, but head coach Tom DeVries knows he cannot rest on his laurels yet. “See, we don’t play Williams Lake a lot, so we don’t have that big rivalry like we would with Terrace,” said DeVries. “But we do because we met in the finals a few times and stuff like that, and they beat us a few times, and we beat them a few times.” “You know, it’s still sweet to win.” The Steelheads beat the Stampeders 4-1 last Saturday in an away game. “We had some fantastic goaltending from David Little,” he said. “In the beginning of the game, they were kind of on us and the goalie made some good saves.” Steelheads’ Mark Arnold scored the first goal early first period, but the Stampeders tied it up in the second. The Steelheads would then continue to widen the lead, ending up with a 4-1 victory. Even a third period two-man power play advantage did not provide the opportunity for the Stampeders to redeem themselves. The game ended with the Steelheads making twice the number of shots on goal, with 28 as compared to the Stampeders’ 14. “But, we haven’t won yet,” emphasizes DeVries. The Steelheads will face their East Division rivals at the Civic Arena this weekend, and DeVries said viewers can expect a different kind of game than the phenomenal semi-finals against Terrace. “Just a different atmosphere,” he said. “Terrace plays a bit more physical, they like to hit more, and Williams Lake is more skilled, more puck movement, they’ve got some hockey players. In saying that, they’re still physical but not like Terrace is.” DeVries is expecting the Stampeders to come up to Smithers with the best they can offer. “They will come back this weekend with a good team and it’s not a gimme that’s for sure,” he said.

Team Bulleid wins first in mixed spiel By William Gye

PRINCE RUPERT - The 65th Annual Prince Rupert Mixed Bonspiel took place at the Prince Rupert Curling Club this past weekend. With 22 teams battling it out in three divisions, there was enough good, healthy competition to go around. The four person teams had to consist of two men and two women. The winning rink of the ‘A’ division included Terrace’s Skip Maurice Bulleid, and teammates Lisa Bulleid, Jordan Johnson, and Natasha Johnson. Maurice shared his thoughts: “This is a fantastic place to come and curl, I love coming here. I’ve been coming here as much as possible for the last 20 years. I wish more people would come and enjoy it. This is the

second year in a row that I have won this event,” he said. “We were pretty dominating in the round robin. The final was pretty one sided, until I made a miss at one end and let them back in the game, but luckily I had the hammer. I drew in my last rock for the win, it felt really good. I have a great team, and it’s the first time we’ve been in a bonspiel together with these couples. They did amazing.” The final score was 8-7 in the ‘A’ division final, but judging by the smiles from the participants and the busy bar area, results didn’t matter as much as everyone coming together, having fun, and competing. The next event for the club will be the Marine Bonspiel March 11 - 13. Find the Prince Rupert Curling Club on Facebook for more information.

Kitimat school gets approval to teach music with iPads By Jackie Lieuwen

THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Mount Elizabeth Middle Secondary School will be offering a new music course to teach students how to electronically create music on iPads. The Coast Mountains School District approved the senior-level course last Wednesday, Feb. 24, and the school already has a full class set of iPads to use. “Anytime we can offer our students another learning opportunity that will engage and excite them, it is considered a worthy investment,” said school district Superintendent Katherine McIntosh. of the course. Students will use iPads and instruments to create original songs, present them to classmates

for peer assessment and do selfassessment of their music. Offered to students Grades 9-12, the course “encourages students to explore the world of lyrics and modern music creation,” says the request for approval to the school district. “The approach supports problem solving, critical analysis, selfexploration, precise use of language, and precise use of sound (music).” “It will allow students to explore areas of music and language that is of interest to each individual.” This course is a follow up to the first Song & Music Creation course and will focus more on themes, collaboration, and postproduction, perhaps creating a musical or a rock opera.

Students will explore technologies and new apps to create music and, if they choose, they will be able to use traditional instruments in conjunction with the iPads. They will also learn to use different apps to enhance their work and will learn to work together to help inspire and shape their creativity. They will have writing exercises to explore themes for their future songs and ways to tie their musical themes together. They will also write lyrics, edit and proof them with feedback from classmates. The course framework was developed by Dave Durrant in January this year, and will be offered in September if there are enough students interested.
