Instrumental Music - A message for Year 3 Families

Music.jfif

Year 3 students have received the Expression of Interest form for consideration of participation in instrumental music for 2026.

Instrumental Music is much more than just learning to play an instrument – it helps students grow personally and academically. Some of the benefits include:

  • Improved attention span and concentration
  • Strengthened fine motor skills and coordination
  • Development of listening and memory skills
  • Increased perseverance and resilience
  • Boosted confidence through performance
  • Building teamwork and communication skills

Expression of Interest forms are to be returned to the office by Monday 1 September 2025.

Year 3 students who have returned their expressions of interest forms will participate in the next stage of the process with Ms Finlay and Mr Allen. Suitability testing will be undertaken Monday 8 September 2025. Offers for the program will be sent in Term 4.
