We have a busy year ahead and the success of the band program relies on student commitment and participation together with support from parents and families so the following is essential:
1) Attend band rehearsals
Please note that participation in band performances are dependent on rehearsal attendance and behaviour as it is representing the school
2) Attend the annual band camp
A weekend from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon in May.
3) Attend other band events
This includes 2 band competitions held on a weekend and our school Strictly Live concert held on a weeknight.
4) Parent supervision of rehearsals and support of events
5) Student Behaviour
Students are expected to respect the same rules for band as they do during school hours
6) Private Tuition
Minimum one on one tuition from a formal tutor. Regular weekly private tutoring is a mandatory requirement of participation in the EHPS Band program. The band program will not teach how to play the instrument, but how to be part of a band and work as a team. We have listed below the contact details for tutors that are local to the area and already teach students from the school. The tutors will invoice you separately for weekly tuition.
