End of Term!

Dear All,

The term is drawing to a close and summer is upon us!

A couple of reminders before CYM closes for the holidays:

  • 24th of July is the deadline for ALL late fee payments. (This includes the term fee plus a £15 late fee.)

  • 26th of July is the deadline for Returning Students Forms. This is very important as your responses allow us to schedule properly for the new year.

  • CYM Summer Concert:

On 24th July, all lessons as normal until 12pm when there will be an end of year concert. The concert is free, and will start at 12pm in the Theatre and will be about 2 hours:
First half - Reds and Yellows

Second half - Greens and Blues

Tutors will let students know in advance if they are involved or not in the concert.

Seats are first come first served, and parents will only be allowed in the theatre from 12pm.

Looking forward to seeing you!

Instrument loan fees

Hello

I hope you've all had wonderful Easter holidays and really hope that none of you are stuck somewhere.

I wish I was blogging with something fun but I'm afraid it's the instrument loan fees again.

If your child has use of a CYMH instrument and you haven't paid your £25 for the year's loan, you must do so by Saturday 1st May 2010 (that gives you 2 Saturdays) to avoid getting in trouble.

Looking forward to a great summer term.

With many thanks for your cooperation!
