Welcome to Term 3
Dear piano families, I hope you have all enjoyed a restful break and are feeling ready for a fresh term of music-making. Welcome back to all our piano students and families as Term 3 begins on Monday. We are excited to begin another term of music learning, growth and performance preparation. Term 3 is always an exciting time as students build on their progress, prepare for upcoming opportunities and continue growing in confidence at the piano.
We would also like to extend a very warm welcome to our new students joining us this term. We look forward to supporting each student as they continue developing confidence, skill and enjoyment at the piano.
Congratulations on AMEB Examination Results
Congratulations to all students who completed AMEB examinations last term. Completing an examination is a wonderful achievement and reflects each student’s commitment, preparation and progress.
Special congratulations go to the students who achieved A+ Distinction results. This is an outstanding accomplishment, and we are very proud of your dedication and excellent work.
Music Books and Learning Materials
Please note that any required music books and learning materials will need to be purchased directly by parents, students or guardians. These books will not be purchased by the school.
AMEB 5th Metropolitan Examination Enrolments
Enrolments for the AMEB 5th Metropolitan examination session are now open and will close on 23 July 2026. The exam session period will run from 5 October to 15 November 2026.
End of Year Concert
Our End of Year Concert will be held on Saturday, 12 December at St George’s Anglican Church in Travancore. This will be a wonderful opportunity for students to share their progress and celebrate the year together.
Thank you again for your continued support. We look forward to a wonderful Term 3 filled with music, learning and achievement.

Dear Students and Parents,
We want to inform you of a change in how books will be managed moving forward. The school will no longer be responsible for ordering or distributing books. Instead, students and parents are encouraged to purchase the required books directly online or from local retailers. Music shops also stock a range of books, so you may wish to explore local options in addition to online suppliers. We believe this system will provide families with greater flexibility, cost savings, and access to a wider range of resources. Thank you for your understanding and support in this transition. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
There are several advantages to this approach:
1. Books can be delivered directly to your home.
2. Some websites offer subscriptions with access to special sales, additional resources.
3. Purchases can be made online and collected in person.
4. Prices vary across different websites and stores, allowing you to choose a cost-effective option.
5. eBay and similar platforms may also provide affordable options, including pre-loaded books.
For your convenience, here are some recommended retailers: have books shipped to your address.
