🎃 Dress Up & Win: MFAA Halloween Costume Contest!
Bring some Halloween fun to your music lessons! We’re inviting students and teachers to show off their costumes for a chance to win prizes.
Students can win a Halloween candy bag in one of three categories:
- Most Musical
- Most Spooky
- Most Creative
Plus, enter our costume raffle! Every student who attends their lesson at the Academy wearing a costume will be entered to win a special prize! We’ll record the draw and announce the winner on Sunday, November 1.
Can’t wear your costume to your lesson? Send us a photo! Photo submissions are eligible for the three category prizes, but raffle entry requires attending a lesson in costume. Our admin and management team will select the category winners.
Teachers can join the fun, too! Our team will vote for the teacher with the Best MFAA Spooky Spirit, who will receive a Halloween basket filled with goodies, candy, and chocolate.
We can’t wait to see your musical, spooky, and creative costumes!
Celebrating Our Students’ RCM Exam Success!
We are delighted to celebrate the outstanding Royal Conservatory of Music exam achievements of our students at Mississauga Fine Arts Academy! Their excellent results reflect the dedication, perseverance, and passion they bring to their musical studies, and we couldn’t be prouder of their accomplishments.
The Royal Conservatory of Music program is one of Canada’s most respected and comprehensive music education systems. It helps students develop strong technical skills, musical expression, and a deeper understanding of their instrument. Preparing for RCM exams requires consistent practice, determination, and expert guidance, and our students have demonstrated wonderful commitment to their musical growth.
We are proud to recognize these excellent results from the recent RCM exam session:
Ashley F. – Theory, RCM Level 5 – 95% First Class Honours with Distinction
Teacher: Ms. Carrie
Jacob F. – Theory, RCM Level 5 – 95% First Class Honours with Distinction
Teacher: Ms. Carrie
Ava X. – Theory, RCM Level 5 – 90% First Class Honours with Distinction
Teacher: Ms. Carrie
Isabella B. – Piano, RCM Level 3 – 83% First Class Honours
Teacher: Mr. Max
Daksh L. – Guitar, Preparatory Level – 80% First Class Honours
Teacher: Mr. Max
Aarush S. – Piano, RCM Level 6 – 74% Honours
Teacher: Ms. Lesya
Aarit M. – Piano, RCM Level 4 – 74% Honours
Teacher: Ms. Lesya
These results reflect not only the students’ hard work but also the dedication of their teachers and the ongoing encouragement and support of their families. RCM exams challenge students to refine their technique, build musical confidence, and grow as well-rounded musicians—important milestones along their musical journey.
Congratulations to all of our students on their wonderful RCM achievements!
We are incredibly proud of your hard work and dedication, and look forward to celebrating many more musical milestones with you!
