Update For Strings Side

Hey guys, congrats and well done to all who made the Family Concert a lovely success...I am sure everyone plus their respective family members and friends who they brought along all enjoyed themselves.


And not forgetting to congratulate Gina and the rest of her Family Concert 2005 commitee who did a fantastic job.



Right, so whats in store for the Strings side of the club?

Practice for freshies for this week (31st Oct - 5th Nov), well....

Take a break guys, no practice has been scheduled for you guys, as a whole new practice schedule is being drawn up, so enjoy the first week of school!

You will know your new practice dates by the end of this week...similarly, the new info will be posted right here online and should be on the notice board as well.

---

For String Seniors however, practice resumes as usual on Saturday(5th Nov) at 12pm, together with the ENTIRE cello section.

Yeap, thats all.

Sorry guitar people, I am not too sure about your practice times, so rather than posting something that might not be accurate, go ask your instructors ok?


Cheers.
