Music Matters

Presentation Ceremony Performances

 

Congratulations to all the music students who have performed over the last two weeks at the Middle School Awards Night, the Year 12 Valedictory and the Senior School Awards Night.

 

At the Middle School Awards we had Elina J (9E), Nanki Singh C (9C) and Vanessa L-R (8B) sing the National Anthem accompanied by Kelly N (9E) on piano. The Junior Rock Band and Junior Jazz Band also played.

 

At the Valedictory Assembly, Anja D (11B) sang the National Anthem accompanied by Ethan J (10A), Mohammad K-A (10C), Alicia H (11E) played the processional on piano, both VCE groups played and the afternoon’s presentation was concluded with the Senior Rock Band performing “Somebody to Love” and “Faith”.

 

The Senior School Assembly featured Jess R (10I) and Gabriella M (10D) singing the National Anthem accompanied by Ethan J (10A) on piano, the Senior Flute Quartet and the Senior Jazz Band.

 

All performances were of a very high standard and all the Music students handled themselves professionally and worked well in rehearsals and sound checks leading up to the performances.

 

Thank you to all the Music staff for preparing the students and attending the events during such a busy time of the year.

Hire Instruments

This is a reminder to all students who hire their instruments from the school, that instruments need to be returned before the end of the year to be checked and serviced.

 

Parents should now consider buying instruments for their children for Christmas as they have worked hard over the year and shown their commitment to the instrument.

 

There are lots of sales on at the moment including a one-day-only sale at Fine Music in Hawthorn on Saturday, 30 November.

 

Please talk to your instrumental teacher before making any instrument purchases.
