Music

Instrumental lessons and Ensembles

Students are reminded that lesson times should be written in the Student Record Book for Term 1, and attention must be given to prompt attendance. Lessons missed due to absence without cause or sufficient notification will be charged and not made up. Email or phone notifications regarding student illness can enable the rescheduling of lessons. Music timetables are displayed on the notice board in the music area and have been emailed. Changes to the timetable are notified via Teams and email so students are reminded to regularly check these.

Big events are coming your way- very soon.

We are thrilled that our great friends in the Australian String Quartet are returning to us on 27 March and will provide a workshop for students and a free community concert in the Simons Auditorium. Off the back of a huge international touring program in 2024, this quartet of fabulous musicians is the preeminent ensemble of their time in this genre.

And……early in Term 2 (30 April) we welcome back some of our other wonderful friends, on tour from Sydney, the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra will work with our students and present a free community concert in the Simons Auditorium.
