Save the Date ~ Concerto Preliminary Concert on 9 March, 7.00pm
Wednesday 9 March will see the culmination of many months’ work for twelve of our most talented secondary school musicians. Commencing at 7.00pm the event will unfold with twelve single movements from a range of concerti for clarinet, violin, viola, ‘cello, oboe and piano, all accompanied by piano. Our adjudicator then will select four works to be performed with orchestra at a showcase event on Wednesday 15 June. If you love to hear musical excellence of the highest calibre from our own student musicians, then this is one concert not to be missed. Tea, coffee and refreshments will be available on the night and the event should conclude soon after 8.30pm. Entry is free.

Music Lockers for Hire
Our Friends of Music Parent Committee manage the hiring of music lockers in the music corridor for the safe, lockable storage of personal and hired instruments which students may wish to store securely whilst at school. The fee per term for a locker is $10. The funds raised are returned to the Music Department to support the purchase of music and instruments and to support funding of special musical events.
