Year Two Strings Concert

Next Tuesday, November 27th, the Year Two Strings programme will wind up with a Term Four performance in the Refectory at 2.45 pm. It has been an exciting year-long programme for the budding musicians.  Mrs Wear, Mr Singh and Mrs Christie have done a fabulous job of introducing our Year Two students to the wonders of playing stringed instruments.  I invite all Year Two parents to join us and share in their final performance.  It is hoped a number of Year Two students will continue on with strings and join our ever expanding Pizzicato Strings group.  At last count, we had 18 regular participants.  This equates to 1/5 of our Junior School population.
