Music Room Etiquette
Our Instrumental Music students gave fun and engaging performances to our 2026 Year 7 students. Thank you to all our talented performers!
A big musical hello from the Cheltenham Secondary Music Department.
The music rooms are now exclusively available to music students during recess and lunchtimes, allowing them to focus on their practice without any disruptions. Secondly, there is to be strictly no food consumption in the music rooms. Instruments and crumbs don’t mix, and music staff would prefer not to be picking up your lunch off the floor. The glory days are over!
