SOMERSET RURAL MUSIC SCHOOL TAUNTON SATURDAY MUSIC CENTRE NOVEMBER 24 2007 STAFF / DESK NEWS Available on line www.tasatmusac.org.uk. TODAY We welcome Claire Barnet-Jones who will be teaching voice before break and helping with Rock School from 11.15>12.00 Katie Beacon will be visiting this morning with a view to taking over from Lauren Hitchcock who will be leaving us at the end of this term in order to start stage two of her gap year. Lauren has been an exemplary student teacher and SRMS wish her every success for her future. Katie was a pupil of Sheila Rabson. YOUNG CARERS Their second and last visit for this term. I attach to this letter e-mails from Jo and Heather. These will also be published on the Web. (As is this News so if you want to check up on things before a Saturday hit the SRMS Web a day before!) I did pop into Rock School and like Jo found the experience quite moving. I do sincerely congratulate all those teachers involved. You made and have another opportunity to make a real impression on these young people. Music of any nature played in an ensemble is more than just the notes and the sound. The TT will be the same as last week- 11.00 Refreshments 11.15 Rock School / Art 12.00 Drama / Art PARENTS NEWSLETTER Most of these seemed to have been given out last week but please check that your students have received one. Spare copies will be with Fiona on the front desk. DIRECTOR Will be leaving for the dreaming spires just after break and will be there for the whole of the session next week.
