VIP RE-ENROLMENT DAY

Pulse HQ (Coles Building)

All students participate in our End of Year Concert and students work on these pieces each week in lessons, developing their skills in the process and learning the importance of rehearsal, commitment, performance techniques and confidence.

We understand some students may be nervous but we ask you to join us in encouraging your child to face their fears. They will gain so much self confidence and courage from performing and is an essential foundational aspect of music study.

In terms of attendance, it is very important that students do not miss any of their scheduled lessons between now and concert time so they can feel as prepared and confident as possible.

If there is any reason why your child will not be able to perform at the concert , please let us know so we can make amendments to the performance line up and adjust scripts/roles.

Concert Fee - $100

See graphic below for all inclusions (Valued over $200)
This fee is billed to all students enrolled in Term 4 - regardless of attendance in concert as the expenses of the inclusions are budgeted for all students.
If your child is not performing for any reason you can still get great value for this price! They are welcome to attend photo day to get amazing portraits, receive the 2025 Tee Shirt and medal.
