the “kitchen area” and theory classes in the large room at tables near the
window. For theory class you will be using the All for Strings theory workbook 1, which will cost $10.00 per student, to be paid January 10 Pleasec ontact Ms Currie if you have any questions
Each child will have a ½ hr. private lesson and a theory
lesson held one after the other. Scheduling will be arranged in the next few weeks, before Christmas break.

Violin classes will take place from 6:00 to 8:00 pm
THURSDAY EVENING ENHANCED CLASSES
.
PLEASE NOTE: Except for the first 2 dates JANUARY 10 and 17 , these classes take
place on alternate Thursdays. We are hiring
teachers for your additional learning
benefit. Therefore you are expected to attend
all of these classes and must call Ms Currie if there is any urgent need to
be absent. Since you are being given more than a month advance notice there
should be no need to miss any of them. The teacher will be assigning practice
homework, which is very important to your progress and which will enhance your orchestra class lessons . Your effort and progress in
theory and private lessons will be tracked by Ms. Currie to support your musical
development.
