Hired Instruments: Instrument Care and Pink Slips

Information has been sent to parents of all students who hire an instrument about how to look after your instrument and what to do if it needs repairing. Please read the document and ensure your child takes care of their instrument properly.

If you have not returned your pink slip (instrument hire form for 2019) please sign and return the signed part to the band box next to the office. If you did not receive a pink slip for 2019 when you collected the hire instrument please contact Kirsteen at APSbandinstruments@gmail.com.

Reminders: Invoices, Creative Kids and updating your child's class

Semester 1 invoices are now due, please pay now if you have not already. If you want to use a Creative Kids voucher, please log on to the music parent portal at https://portal.msmusic.com.au/artarmonmusic and provide the details. If you use a Creative Kids voucher you pay $100 less than your invoice total, we will credit the $100 against your invoice when we have redeemed the voucher from Service NSW.

Also, have you updated your child's class to their 2019 class in the music parent portal? If not please do it as soon as possible so that we have the correct details for your child. Just log in to the portal, click on Update Student, type in their class and Save.

Easter Band Breakfast Concert

All bands (yes, including Training band!) and Orchestra will perform at the annual Easter Band Breakfast concert on Friday 12^th April (the last day of term) before school.

We are looking for a group of parents to organise and assist with this. It is an informal concert and easy to organise. Tasks include publicising the event, buying and serving hot cross buns and drinks, collecting money and clearing up. Please contact band@artarmonpandc.org.au if you are able to help with this event.
