Instrumental Music 2015:

During the past two weeks emails have been sent to a variety of family groups advising of the enrolment procedure for learning a musical instrument in 2015. Please note that for existing Scotch families, a new enrolment process will be in place - an online system that utilises Parent Connect logins. For new Scotch families without a Parent Connect login, an enrolment form that covers different year levels will be made available. For all Instrumental Music enquiries, please contact Music Administrator, Julia Robinson (9383 6841) music@scotch.wa.edu.au

Instrumental Music enrolments should be submitted by Friday, 21 November.

The 2015 Music Handbook is available on the Scotch College website by following Our School / The Arts / Music, or by clicking this link: Music Handbook 2015.

Upcoming events include:

Friday, 21 November, Piano Soiree, 4.00pm, Middle School Music Room

Many of the events listed above are supported by FOSM. If you would like to join the Friends of Scotch Music (FOSM) - a group of parents who enthusiastically support the work of boys and staff in the Music Department, the process is very straight forward via the FOSM email below. FOSM meets once or twice each term with all meetings beginning at 7.00pm. Meetings go for approximately one hour, and are held in the Senior School MUSIC Room with everyone welcome. Please consider becoming involved in the FOSM Parent Support group as an excellent way to support your son and the Music Programme at Scotch College. The next FOSM Meeting is to be held Monday, 9 February 2015.
