Quadra Elementary Strings Program

Grade 5 string students will be meeting for their strings class this year on Wednesday after school from 3pm to 4pm and Thursday after school from 3pm to 4pm.

Grade 5 students interested in joining strings may choose to learn either violin, viola or cello at Quadra with a district specialist teacher.

Each year, the Quadra String students perform at a variety of school and community events such as Quadra Elementary concerts, District String Concerts, Greater Victoria Perforoming Arts Festival and "Quadra Village Days".
