\u201cMusic for Mateship\u201d – ANZAC Day Commemoration 2020<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In the last week of the school holidays, an email was sent to Primary and Secondary students involved in Music ensembles to take part in in the \u201cMusic for Mateship\u201d initiative.\u00a0 The current COVID-19 situation saw services that would normally have taken place in our local communities to commemorate ANZAC Day cancelled.\u00a0 \u201cMusic for Mateship\u201d was a national call for musicians to learn and play The Last Post<\/em> and Reveille<\/em> at the end of their driveways at 6am on ANZAC Day.<\/p>\n

The spirit of the ANZACs was certainly kept alive as you can see from the following photographs of students who took on the challenge.\u00a0 Thank you to these students for sharing your photographs with the school community: Katerina Giannikouris (Year 5), Georgia Baker Wood (Year 6), Anna Slack (Year 3), Emily O\u2019Shea (Year 6) and Samantha Millin (Year 7).\u00a0 Well done to everyone who took part in this initiative!<\/p>\n

Instrumental and Vocal Tuition via Zoom<\/strong><\/h4>\n

As face to face teaching is being re-introduced (beginning with our Year 12 students) most tutors feel it would be more practical to maintain their teaching through an online platform.\u00a0 Tutors will be in contact with families with lesson times for the coming weeks.\u00a0 Students are reminded to let their class teachers know if they have an instrumental\/vocal lesson within a timetabled class.\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Co-curricular Music Activities<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A schedule of Co-curricular Music activities will be shared with the school community in Week 2.\u00a0 Ensemble directors and conductors have worked hard to create activities for students to access online.<\/p>\n

See below the pictures of students who participated in Bugles band online with Mr Tierney at the end of last term:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Students involved in the relevant ensembles will be contacted with further information about their online activity.<\/p>\n

We encourage all students who are currently involved in a co-curricular Music ensemble to remain committed to the online activities.<\/p>\n

Any students who like to join are most welcome and are encouraged to contact Mr Jewitt (Ensembles Co-ordinator) in the Music Department.<\/p>\n

Whilst the current situation is restricting our activities as an \u201conline\u201d presence \u2013 we are looking forward to resuming our rehearsals face-to-face as soon as the situation allows.<\/p>\n
