Term 4

Hi Everyone,

Enjoy the last few days of the holidays and get some sun. Violin lessons start back on Monday 5th October.

If your team is in the Grand Final, good luck! Rosie is wearing her team's colours.

From Georgina

Happy Holidays!
Have a good holiday everyone, we'll be back for Term 4 on Monday 5th October.
Get plenty of rest!

Term 2 Starts this Monday

Dear Families,
Term 2 starts this Monday April 13. I hope you've all enjoyed some time off. Autumn Festival was great this year, it was lovely to bump into students who seemed to be enjoying themselves. Here's a great quote which encapsulates how I feel when I teach:

"The soul is healed by being with children"
Fyodor Dostoevsky

Looking forward to seeing you all this week.
From Georgina

Great Concert Today!

Congratulations everyone for a great solo concert today! I hope you all had fun and were proud of your efforts. See you at your lessons this week.

Welcome Back

Dear Families,

Welcome back, I hope everyone has had a safe and happy holiday. This year is special to me as it marks the 20th year of violin teaching as well as my 40th year of living! I am now catching up with students that are in university that I've been teaching since they were little kids. Time flies.

Here are some important dates for this 8 WEEK term:

Start Term 1: Monday 2nd February

Last day Term 1: Saturday 28 March

Solo Concert Date: Sunday 22nd February: 1pm, 2pm, 3pm, 4pm. Please choose your concert time and let me know

Labor Day Public Holiday: Monday 2nd March, no lessons

Suzuki Association Autumn Festival: 9th-11th April

Please remember to try to arrive 5 minutes prior to your lesson time and unpack quietly. At the end please exit quietly so the next student can commence their lesson.

I encourage everyone to attend group class, it is a crucial part of the Suzuki teaching method and allows students to play in a group context. Group class is held on Friday afternoons from 4:30-5:20pm at the Fordham Avenue Scout Hall. Saturday Group class is currently full as it's held in my studio.

See you all next week, keen and ready to go!

Yours sincerely,

Georgina Mead

Term 1 Starting Soon

WHAT IF I’M LATE?

Then you’ll miss out! We start tuning at 10am, then start straight away. If you miss the piece you’re up to, then sadly there will be no back tracking. We have a lot to cover!
