SUMMER SCHOOL IS BACK
"Summer Zappers," the
annual Summer School of the Australian Society for Music Education (WA
Chapter) will be held on Monday 19th & Tuesday 20th January, 2008
at John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School in Mirrabooka Avenue,
Mirrabooka.
The Summer School is for all music educators - early childhood, primary & secondary and music ed. students are also welcome to attend (full time students are half price.)
Just like last year, we'll be kicking everything off with a Champagne Breakfast on Monday morning, to give you a chance to catch up with friends from previous years.
Our special guest presenter will be Mr George Torbay, of "Battle of the Choirs" fame. On Monday he will be presenting a primary, secondary and combined session and his new choral book will be available for purchase.
The secondary stream includes Jazz with Matt Styles, An Introduction to Improvisation (Robert Faulkner); Music Technology Made Really Easy (Joel Birch), Planning for 1A - 1B Course of Study (Sheena Prince), Planning for VET (Sheila Randall) and AMEB Contemporary Popular Music (Barry Palmer.)
The Primary/Early Primary stream includes Marlene Rattigan from Kidz Fiz Biz, Leonie Cecich from Music N Kids, Sue Lalor (Noonan) with a session on Primary Outcomes, as well as sessions on Jelly Beans, Robert Faulkner (Zimbabwean Music) and Mary Jasprizza (Walton) with a session on Primary Recorder.
There are also sessions which will be suitable for either primary or secondary, such as Simon Faulkner's Introduction to the Drumbeat Programme, Helen Gouteff's ever popular Taiko drumming, and Anna-Maria Paolino's session on Music and the Brain/Languages.
As usual, there will be an extensive trade display, so please bring your chequebooks, credit cards and/or school order numbers; there'll be yummy lunches and morning teas, wonderful networking opportunities, a raffle to support Holyoake/Drumbeat, as well as the opportunity to hear about a new lobby group of teachers, METiER.
Further details about these sessions, the presenters and Summer School in general is available from the administrator (triglads@westnet.com.au)
Registration forms and a copy of the draft timetable are available now on our website (see above), from the administrator, and have also been sent to your school, via the Principal. If you have not received it, please contact your principal or school office to ask what has happened to your mail. ASME members should also have received their Opus by now, with Summer School forms enclosed.
EARLY BIRD DISCOUNTS: To claim the $20 early bird discount, you'll need to postmark your letter on or before 18th December, the last day of school (government schools).
Best wishes, and please don't hesitate to contact me for more details,
