Director of Music | Mr Jan Hewerdine

As the end of the year approaches and we begin planning for 2020, could you please notify the Music Department ASAP of any enrolment changes to your son’s lessons for 2020. Students currently enrolled in the program will automatically roll over. During these final weeks and early in the new year, you will be receiving information regarding lessons and ensembles.

Preparations are underway for the Premier Ensembles Camp during  Staff Week in January 2020. This will be held both at the College and at QCCC Brookfield. The camp is a great opportunity for our Premier Ensemble musicians to engage in several days of intensive rehearsals to hone their skills and to develop a sense of teamwork and camaraderie within their ensembles. Please respond to the Parent Lounge request (once posted) by the due date as numbers need to be finalised with the camp site before the end of term.

I wish to thank the Terrace Family for the support we have received this year for Music at Terrace. The genuine interest that has been shown in what we are doing here has been most gratifying. In particular, I would like to single out the TPA Support Group, whose efforts have helped make our program and performances shine even more. Finally, to Mr Norman Clarke, a huge thank you once again for all that you do for us in Music. Your patronage of the Music program over these many years has been life-changing for so many of the boys.

Merry Christmas everyone!
