Music excellence

Congratulations to Olivia on completing her first AMEB exam for violin. She worked very hard in lessons and home practice and study towards her exam. She learned and performed scales, technical exercises, technical pieces and solo repertoire for the exam, as well as answering music theory questions and aural tests.

She received an A+ (High Distinction) for her exam, with some wonderful comments from their examiners about her music progress. These exams are Australia wide and this is the highest mark can be achieved.  Olivia and her friend, Kayreen in Year 4, both study at Encore Strings, as well as taking small group lessons at school and playing in Coomera Rivers Senior Strings. 

Celebration of Learning

After break each day in 3LS get Ready to Learn by relaxing and listening to classical music. This allows us to calm and focus. We have enjoyed reading The Lorax by Dr. Seuss, especially getting our tongues around the unusual words he has in the book, such as “whisper-ma-phone, Thneed, ga-zump and Bar-ba-loots”. We used our own creativeness by making up some new words as well: Trimathical Maths, Liberwhisper (Library) and Rememory Day(Rememberance Day).
