Music Notes
Private music lessons
Private music lessons are held in the Performing Arts Centre by external tutors on specific days and times. Instruction is available in a large range of instruments, theory, voice and composition. The College views the study of music as an essential part of each student’s development. The extension of this study through private tuition on an instrument is strongly encouraged because of the flow-on benefits to performance in other academic areas.
To commence private music lessons in 2017 there is now an online form. Please follow the instructions and complete the application form: Private Music Tuition Form. Click on the link.https://waverleycollege.wufoo.eu/forms/music-tuition-fee-schedule-2017/
Written notification by parents must be received by Friday 25 November if students will not be continuing private music tuition next year. Hired instruments, locker keys or other music equipment must be returned by the end of Term 4 if students will not be continuing private music tuition next year. Please return to either Mrs Coupe in the Junior School or Mrs Kossenberg at the Senior School. Hire fees will continue to be billed until the instrument is returned.
All Music Faculty enquiries should be directed to the PAC Administrator, Mrs Kossenberg on 9369 0623 or email kkossenberg@waverley.nsw.edu.au
