Music Notes
Marching Band Come & Try Afternoon
At the end of Term 2, music students were invited to attend a Marching Band rehearsal and sign-up for the new season! This group included new wind players, percussionists and colour guard members.
Students who attended, watched a short video featuring the Marching Band's trip to Darling Harbour earlier this year, before being separated into their respective groups to get to know one another and practice some music and moves. After a huge afternoon, they all came together to show off their talents and listen to the sound they can make as a team.
We're hopeful the new students enjoyed their first experience with the Marching Band and will continue with it into this term and long after that.
If you are interested in being a member of the Marching Band, please contact me for further information.
