Music Program 

Music 2025

All students enrolled in instrumental music lessons should have started now. Lessons appear on Compass each week and students miss part of a normal class on a rotating timetable. It is a requirement of all students learning an instrument at the College,that they participate in a major ensemble each week. This is a requirement for the region who gives us some funding which subsidises the costs of tuition. We also believe it is imperative that student learn through ensemble playing.

All of the ensemble are running now with the only exception being the Year 7 Band and Strings groups which will commence after Year 7 Camp.

Mordialloc Jazz Festival - Saturday 15 February
