Y7 Introduction to the OAE

Wednesday 16 September

Dear families,

On Wednesday 16 September, all Y7 students will be taking part in a one-hour workshop introducing them to our resident orchestra, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment (OAE). The X side of the year will do their workshop during period 3 and the Y side during period 4.

In period 5 on the same day, there is an opportunity for all students who play instruments outside school to take part in a fun jamming session with the OAE and find out more about music opportunities at Acland Burghley. If your child plays an instrument, please can they bring it into school on this day. Instruments must be in a case and labelled with full name and tutor group. If your child plays the piano or drums, please email Ms Tan ktan@aclandburghley.camden.sch.uk so we can plan for appropriate instruments. Any student who cannot carry their instrument with them during the day can store them in locked rooms in the music department until period 5.

Please could you help to ensure your child brings in their instrument (if they play one) on Wednesday 16 September.

If you have any questions about this project and how it works, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
