Anyone whose child is interested in playing violin or just wants to check it out is invited to our “Pizza Party” on Friday 1st December at 3pm to 4pm in the shared space between Rooms 12 and 13.

At the Art Expo the other Saturday we had some wonderful music going on. Violin students helped earn some money for the school by busking. This was the first time any of the children had busked so it was a fabulous learning experience and is an amazing skill to have.

Top marks to our Violin students and to Archie who entertained us on the guitar and vocals!!
