The Sidney Community Music School, founded in 1990 by Ann Marie Thompson is located at 1833 Glamorgan Road, North Saanich, B.C. The school's mission is to develop a dedicated community of musicians who will participate in and enjoy music for the rest of their lives. All faculty are university trained, professional musicians dedicated to teaching music in a way which will nurture a love of music, engender creative thinking, and motivate students to commit to and achieve a high level of playing. We encourage students to participate in the many performing opportunities and masterclasses offered throughout the year. Community involvement is a priority and students and faculty frequently play at community sponsored events.

Step into Norgarden and leave your worries behind. This cozy and inviting retirement community is located on the beautiful Saanich Peninsula in the charming oceanfront town of Sidney, BC, just 20 km north of Victoria BC. Featuring well-appointed suites, gourmet dining and 24-hour staffing, Norgarden offers independent living in a caring community.
Enjoy elegant retirement living in the heart of charming Sidney-By-The -Sea. The Peninsula and Norgarden retirement communities offer the very best in Independent and Assisted Living choices for those seniors that wish to maintain their active lifestyle while freeing themselves from the daily chores of living alone.
You choose to live in a studio, one or two bedroom suite with kitchenette or a full kitchen, whichever suits your needs. Independent Living is available at both locations as well as Assisted Living at The Penninsula. Assisted Living is for those residents that require a little more support with activities of daily living and can be put into place for a short time or increased as needs of the resident changes. Norgarden and The Peninsula buildings are noticeable smaller than most which allows us to create a more home like friendly atmosphere. Beautiful mature gardens and patios surround the communities and welcome an afternoon stroll or some tea and a chat in the sun.
