Student quote of the week 

 Teacher: I suppose if you were sick last week, you didn’t get to do much practice? 

Student with look of horror: Not even sickness can hold me back! 

Corelli Strings performs in assembly 

 On Monday 18th November, Corelli Strings performed in assembly. They gave a groovy performance “Mango Tango” by Stephen Chin and a lively performance of “Chicken in the Kitchen” by Stephen Chin.  

Corelli Strings is made up of players in approximately their second year of learning their string instrument. It was fabulous to hear them playing together as a group, creating a unified, full sound. Yay! 

Upcoming assembly performances

We have 2 more string group performances in assembly over the coming weeks:

• Monday 25th November - Orchestra 
• Monday 2nd December - Start Up Strings
