Spring Term 2023 News Letter

Wow this year seems to be going so fast we are already halfway through and it still feels like we only just started and here we are heading into the summer term. 

With the rapid approach of the summer term we are looking into the possibility of staging a live event for all of our students. Since the advent of Covid we have not been able to have our annual summer concert. Now that Covid is largely behind us this is something we are very keen to revive. Performing is such a valuable skill and experience for all budding musicians and we have missed the opportunity to provide this for all of our students. Currently we are searching for a venue and a format to allow everyone who wants to to take part, currently we have 97 students so we need a plan! - Hopefully we can get something together and as soon as we have any more information we will let you all know. Watch this space!

Some of you may have noticed that our ‘My Music Staff’ portal has undergone a bit of a facelift. The new format website is currently optional but please give it a try and let us know what you think. We would be happy to pass on any feedback to ‘My Music Staff’.

We would like to apologise to all of our students who’s exams have been affected by the changes being made at LCME. The exam board has been going through a period of restructuring from the end of last year and this is still currently ongoing. We are hoping that things will settle down again over the next few months. In light of this we apologise to those students who have experienced long waits for their certificates and issues with their exam formats.

Lastly we would like to thank everyone for their kind words and consideration after the passing of DJ earlier this term, He was as much a part of Melody Makers as we are and he is so very very missed by us and many of our students. We would like to thank you all for being so considerate.

Love and Music

Claire, Steve Emily and Joanna
