String Concert

What a great concert on Tuesday evening.  Year 3 played really well in their final performance as string players.  Thank you for all the work that you have done over the year.  Year 2 have progressed really well since the beginning of the year.  They will now be playing more ensemble type pieces.  Thank you to the String Ensemble boys who came and played.

Band Concert

The Band Concert will be held this evening, the boys who play wind and brass instruments – Year 4 and Year 5 and the School Band will be involved.  We are looking forward to playing for you.  The concert will begin at 5.00pm, boys need to be here at 4.45pm to set up and warm up.

Instrumental Lessons

Please remember that when lessons finish at the end of Week 8, you will need to either fill in a hard copy of the instrument tuition form (these are found in the school office) or please fill one in online through the Stanmore Music area on Spaces: http://insites.newington.nsw.edu.au/instrument/ if you wish to continue.

Returning and Checking Instruments

All instruments need to be returned next week (Week 7).  The boys in Years 3 and 5, unless they are continuing to play them next year will not be taking them home again.  Boys in Years 2 and 4 will be handed a new agreement that needs to be signed and returned. Boys will then be taking the instruments home over the holidays – to occasionally play!

Boys who are in the various school ensembles that are playing over the coming weeks will be continuing to take their instruments home. If they are not returning to the school, or not continuing next year, these instruments will then be collected after their last performance or at Prize Giving.
