Arts Umbrella

Arts Umbrella, a not-for-profit arts education centre for children and youth, will be at Lord again this week working with most classes on a fantastic program. This is a wonderful experience for students to learn and have fun with an expert!

Numerous studies indicate that people who receive arts education early in life reap many tangible, long-term, life-changing benefits. From enhanced critical thinking, improved self-esteem and ability to collaborate, to improved scores in math and science, children gain skills that can help them well into adulthood.

We are very fortunate to have this opportunity for students within the regular classroom schedule. For more information about this program at Lord, please contact the school at 604-713-6420.
