Fort Frances High School is getting some new instruments for its music department.
The school was the recipient of a $10-thousand Band-Aid grant from MusiCounts, a music education charity associated with The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.
Music Director Lisa Loney says the grant was a welcomed surprise.
"I have to say we were very surprised," says Loney, "just because it's a very difficult grant to get and there's a lot of steps you have to go through to get it. We did all the right things and I guess if you do all the right things, good things can come your way.
Loney says hope to take delivery of the seven new instruments in time for use at a concert in December.
