Director of Music | Mr Derek Rose

Congratulations to the Waterford String Quartet ensemble who gave a wonderful performance at assembly on Tuesday.

GPS Showcase

Congratulations to all the boys who were selected to perform last Thursday as part of the GPS Showcase. Terrace boys were represented across the four featured ensembles; Big Band, Concert Band, Symphony Orchestra and the Choir. 

OneNote

Students are accustomed to the Microsoft OneNote application. All students who partake in individual or shared lessons are required to use OneNote with their Music or Speech and Drama teacher. OneNote is where parents/caregivers can review lesson content, monitor attendance and view homework set by their sons’ teacher. Students have received an invitation by their teacher to the relevant OneNote platform, if your son is unsure about this, please contact his teacher.

Years 5 and 6 Norman Clarke Music program (Classroom Music)

Please remind your son that he requires his instrument, relevant instrumental book and device for all lessons on either Monday or Tuesday afternoon. Instruments for the program are to be stored in the Music Centre, not in classrooms.

Music Practice Hall 2021

Music Practice Hall is an excellent opportunity for your son to benefit from assistance as he practices his instrument. Being new to Terrace, I see enormous opportunity for students who participate in this Monday afternoon session. With a range of trained professionals here to assist your son, I urge all parents to support their son’s participation in this initiative each Monday afternoon 3.15 – 5pm.

Instrument Storage

All high school students’ instruments are stored safely and securely. Students are reminded to store their instrument in one of two places, in their locker or MU2 on Level 3.
