If your son is involved in itinerant music lessons (ITM), please ensure that he has his instrument and music with him at school on the day of his lesson. Itinerant music lessons are part of the NZ curriculum and take place during school hours at half hour intervals with specialist instrumental music teachers. Once the timetables are finalised, these will be available on your son's instrumental Google Classroom.
Concert Band rehearsals are on every Tuesday at 7.45am. All members are expected to be there. If your son is unable to make any rehearsals, please make sure to communicate this to us.
Combined choir rehearsals will begin at school next week during lunch time in our music room and will combine at Marist College for after school rehearsals from Tuesday 7 March after school until 5.30pm. Your son will need to make his own way home from Marist College after rehearsals. Please be looking out for an email from me with more information, if your son is in this choir.
Have a great week and remember to encourage your son to practice his musical instrument at home every day.
