2022 Co-curricular Music Rehearsals (High School and Clemes)
We’re delighted that rehearsals have commenced for 2022. However, it’s not too late to join an ensemble. The rehearsal schedule may be found here and additional information about the available ensembles may be found on the Year 7-12 Co-curricular Music Google site (student access only).
Year 7-12 Music Representatives
We are currently seeking nominations from Years 9 to 12 Music students for the roles of Music Representative. Students wishing to nominate either themselves or someone else, are asked to do so using the form in the relevant section of the 7-12 Co-curricular Music site (student access only).
After school pick-up
Please note that the Commercial Road carpark is not to be used for after school pick-up. This is a shared space and becomes too congested and unsafe at this busy time of the day.
