First steps
These first steps are an exciting time for everyone involved – pupil, parent and teacher, but there may be many questions you would like to ask in relation to this provision.
In order to help parents and pupils begin this musical journey with confidence a series of “New Start” evenings will be held in 3 centres:
- Omagh/Strabane
Monday 9 September 2024, 6.00 pm, Omagh Academy Grammar School, 21-23 Dublin Road, Omagh. Co Tyrone BT78 1HF.
- Derry/Limavady
Wednesday 11 September 2024, 6.00 pm, Foyle College, 67 Limavady Road, Londonderry, Co Londonderry, BT47 6LR.
- Enniskillen
Thursday 12 September 2024, 6.00 pm, Mount Lourdes Grammar School, 4 Belmore Street, Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh, BT74 6AB.
(Main Assembly Hall via Belmore Street).
Informal and informative
The format for each evening will be simple and informal. It will begin with an opportunity for you and your child to introduce yourselves to the tutors, followed by a demonstration recital by the instrumental staff (children should sit at the front of the hall, their instrument is not required).
Please note the commencement times for each session, which will last approximately 1 hour.
Please avail of this opportunity, as we believe that it will contribute positively to your child’s musical experience and future progress.
