Timetables
We are still investigating the use of Clipboard for our music timetables. In the interim, please refer to the Music Tile on MazCom for current Term 3 timetables. Thank you for your patience.
Instrument Storage:
Students are reminded that instruments can be stored in the storage area at the rear of the Band Room in the Founders’ Complex. Instruments should be taken home at the end of the day AND over school holidays. There have been multiple instances where instruments have been found lying outside. It is your son’s responsibility to look after their instrument. Any damages or loss caused by lack of care will be charged to the relevant family.
2026 Ensembles:
Ensemble rehearsals are now scheduled on Clipboard. This is the program that students use for sport.
The updated schedule can be found on MazCom
