Arts Day

International Women's Day

During the International Women's Day breakfast on Friday, guests were entertained by Arwen Abad (Year 12) on vocals, accompanied by Mr Tim Opstelten on guitar. As attendees enjoyed their breakfast, they were treated to a rendition of Lavender's Blue by members of the Junior String Ensemble - Alfred Chen (Year 4), Haiden Kim (Year 4), Lia Lee (Year 5) and Myla Grant (Year 5).

Private Instrumental and Vocal Tuition

This year we have updated the billing method for Music Tuition at Clayfield College. Fees for music tuition covering Term 1 and Term 2 will now be consolidated and appear on each student's account in the Term 2 invoice. Students will be billed based on the number of lessons they were allocated in Term 1, plus a set amount for eight lessons in Term 2. 

 

Should parents decide to withdraw their child from Private Tuition, it's imperative that the Music Department is informed. Failing to cancel lessons in a timely manner will incur a cancellation fee equivalent to two weeks of lessons. To avoid this, please ensure you send a withdrawal notification email to music@clayfield.qld.edu.au by the end of Term 1.

 

For a detailed understanding of our Terms and Conditions, we encourage you to review the information provided on the lesson application below.
