How can I register for my child
The online registration form can be found in this section of my website. Alternately, you can contact me via the Contact Us page.
What should my child wear for sessions and or performances
We do not have a specific dress code. I just ask for their clothing to be acceptable. But as we are after School times so children are often in School clothes. During performances, we wear comfortable clothing. (Junior Harmony tops are in the process of being made available for purchase.)
How can I help and or support the music group
It is greatly appreciated if you could spread the word about our music group. Any help within the group will be subject to a DBS check.
How do you ensure the safety of the children during rehearsals and performances
You can be assured that you are in safe hands. Rebecca Hitchcock holds a current DBS check and has a current First Response in First Aid.
We emphasise safety measures, such as background checks for staff and supervision ratios.
Parents / carers are asked to remain within the building during rehearsals. If you have to leave your child/children during the rehearsal, please complete a term first so I can get to know you and your children.
What is this music group about
We are a music group and your children will learn about rhythm, singing correctly, keyboard skills, and music reading.
