Musical Notes

The Music Department is buzzing with students at the moment, auditioning and preparing for MusicFest on Thursday 29 October. This whole-school, inter-house event is an opportunity for students to showcase their talents in various musical disciplines. Years 7 & 8 will compete during Period 1, Years 9 & 10 during Period 2, and Years 11-13 during Period 3 when the Senior Section students would normally have Sports and Leisure. At the end of the day, all points will be added up to see which house has won the trophy … and if Maison have retained their musical supremacy for a third year in a row.

There will be a live feed of the day, so if your child is performing you will be able to watch them from the comfort of your own home. The URL for the feed will be sent out a week in advance.

We also have our annual concert to support the St. John’s HIV Education Centre coming up on Tuesday 10th November. Our Chamber Choir and Orchestra will be performing so please consider coming along to support them.

Finally, if you have a student in Chamber Choir or Orchestra who is interested in joining us at the International Schools Choral Music Society festival in Zhuhai (27-31 January 2016), the closing date to apply in next  Wednesday 30 September. The letter containing details and application form is attached here. It would be wonderful to take a large group this year, considering the festival is so close by, meaning parents can easily travel to attend the closing Gala Concert.
