Continuation of Instrumental Lessons for 2018
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We trust that your daughter has enjoyed being a part of the Instrumental Music
program at MGC. Apart from undertaking weekly lessons, students have the
opportunity to be involved in our many ensembles and performance evenings.
We thank you for supporting your daughters with their home practice.
Planning for 2018.
Staffing and timetabling is an involved task, so it is necessary for your daughter
to indicate if she wishes to continue with her music tuition in 2018 to guarantee
her place.
In order to secure your daughter’s place in the program, we require you to return
the portion below to the General Office with payment methods.
Want to begin instrumental lessons for 2018?
Please submit your application form to the office ASAP.
Regards,
Anne Corry

Missed Friday’s lunchtime information session?
Expression of interest forms can be located outside the music room. You can return your completed form there too.
We have begun familiarizing students with the audition song/s and characters. If you are unable to make your allocated session, then come along to another. Audition tracks can be found on Compass under School Resources/Miscellaneous/Bring It On.
Auditions begin in Week 5. All students who audition will be accommodated-no one misses out!
Rehearsals will begin in Term 2, Tuesdays and/or Thursdays afterschool, depending on which chorus you are allocated.
Chookas!
