(26th Nov 2018) - A Valencia guitar has gone missing.
If your child receives guitar lessons in school, please double check that they have not brought home someone else's guitar by mistake. This occasionally happens because many children in school have identical guitar cases. If you haven't already done so, please ensure your child's guitar, and guitar case, is clearly labelled with their name and class. Thank you. |
PLEASE NOTE: Children are only permitted to receive private lessons for ONE instrument in class curriculum lesson time.
Tuition for a second instrument may be received, but ONLY if the lesson for that instrument is before/after school or during lunchtime.
If you would like your child to receive tuition for a second instrument within the school premises, it is your responsibility, when applying for lessons, to inform the new teacher that your child is only able to receive tuition before/after school or during lunchtime.
Please bear in mind that some peripatetic staff will not be able to accommodate this within their own timetable, therefore, tuition for a second instrument may not be possible within school. If this is the case, it would be worth seeking private tuition out of school time, either at your own home, at the teacher's home, or at a music centre.
Please contact Miss Rusbatch if you would like the contact details for private tutors who are not associated with Downs Junior School.
