GRANBY – Students of all ages participated in a Battle of the Bands and received leadership awards on May 10, in an assembly held at Granby Elementary School.

Students from Granby Elementary School pose with their leadership awards. The certificates were awarded for excellence in character, kindness, positive attitude and overall leadership qualities.

The assembly began with five bands comprised of sixth grade students putting on musical performances for their peers.

Performing bands included Imagination Station, Lava, L.A.P.M. The Language Team, The Kings, and Derpie Dinosaur.

The bands performed various musical acts to an audience of cheering and singing students.

The bands integrated singing, dancing, and playing musical instruments both on stage and in the crowd.

Forty-eight students were then called up to the stage by Granby principal Gina Salerno to receive leadership awards.
