On Tuesday, the 24th of September, a group of 44 middle school students from Australia will be visiting NIS to give a music performance / workshop. The topic will be a history of Australia, as seen through music.
Block 4: MSUS music students will attend during xBlock. This will also include all grade 9 and 10 music students (see email from last week). Advanced Orchestra students are allowed to attend if they get their teachers’ permissions beforehand.
Block 5: PS students will be attending after lunch. They will sit on the floor of the middle music room, so there is plenty of space for any primary classes that still want to attend.
Please see Amy for more information. Thanks!
Because they are so good at it.
