Coming soon – Emanuel School Music Camp 2018!

The annual Emanuel School Music Camp is a wonderful celebration of our vibrant music culture and the talents and hard work of our young musicians. Each camp is a special experience for students as they unite in a shared love of music and work together in the pursuit of excellence. Emanuel School music staff join with a team of highly-skilled professional musicians to develop and hone students’ musical skills in preparation for an exciting showcase concert.

Emanuel School Music Camp 2018 is a three-day residential camp that will take place from Monday 2 July, returning on the evening of Wednesday 4 July and continuing with an all-day rehearsal on Thursday 5 July, and the Music Camp Showcase Concert in the MPH on the Thursday evening.

All members of participating ensembles in Years 4 to 11 are expected to attend Music Camp at a cost of approximately $500. Attendance for Year 12 students is optional. Full details regarding Music Camp will be published in Ma Nishma soon and emailed to parents, including the list of participating ensembles, the cost and the procedure for registering to attend.
