Musicianship Assessments – Term 4

Dear Choristers, 

As you know we have been preparing for our upcoming musicianship assessment in Term 4. All classes have been working diligently and developing our musicianship which supports our choral and general music skills and knowledge. 

Remember, assessment has a negative connotation which has come mostly from our school environment. In the musicianship space, this is simply an opportunity for you to demonstrate your learning and show where you progressed in YOUR journey for musicianship this year. It’s easy to fall into the worry of achievement and how you compare to others. This is not what I want to see from you at all. Please focus on the positive things, the benefit of having these opportunities to refine our musicianship tool-kit; hand signs, aural-vocal skills, understanding of scales and drills and some additional challenges.

You will attend your musicianship demonstration time with another chorister and have the support of singing most of times. Please look out for this schedule coming soon. Arrive a little earlier and run through a few things with your buddy. 

To support your preparation, I have prepared some practice videos which can be accessed at the links below. Please use them if required. If they are too fast or slow, just use them as a reference and go at your own pace.

YAV Disney Singalong!

To celebrate our wonderful community, the end of term, and coming together once more, come and join us for our YAV Disney Singalong on Friday 30th of September 6pm – 8pm!

Dress up your favourite character and get ready to sing all your favourite songs from Disney! There will also be a Disney quiz during the night, so start revising.

Please BYO food, drinks, plates, cups, etc. We encourage you to bring reusable packaging for this event. Each group is responsible for their own space (and potential mess!), so please consider this when packing snacks! Note: this is a no alcohol event.

Children are to sit with their family/caregivers throughout the evening.

We are so excited to see you there!

Stay tuned for the ticket link!
