Reggae Roots at Sistema Toronto – Jane Finch

06-04-2025

Working in this field has shown us how a diverse, inclusive curriculum can activate a student’s passion and sense of self. At Sistema Toronto, our goal is to have repertoires that represent our students and the communities they live in. With that in mind, Sistema Toronto invited Juno-nominated reggae artist Jah’Mila to work with students at our Jane Finch Centre this March as part of a months-long exploration of reggae music titled Reggae Roots. Our students spent January and February preparing for three days of workshops led by Jah’Mila and a culminating concert.

The Arts of Dream Begin with Children’s Dreams

06-04-2025

In both Korean and English, the word dream carries layered meanings. It can refer, first, to the images and sensations we experience during sleep; second, to the hopes and ideals we wish to realize; and third, to a fleeting illusion or unrealistic fantasy.

La Iniciativa Reina del Paraíso: Una experiencia que cambia la vida en Vanimo, Papúa Nueva Guinea

05-07-2025

Una de las experiencias más memorables de mi estancia en Vanimo fue ayudar a los estudiantes a preparar la música para una ocasión verdaderamente especial: la visita, el pasado agosto, del Papa Francisco. Con solo tres semanas para prepararse, los estudiantes fueron capaces de montar tanto un concierto completamente grabado para el Santo Padre como algunas piezas en directo para su visita a los Padres del IVE en Baro.
