Ah yes, the summer heat is finally here! which means that back to school is just around the corner lol!
The Errington Little Music School is setting the fall schedule now so please give us a call to tell us what times you would prefer for your lessons.

Lessons for kids combine arts and crafts to learn how to read music and a little bit of dance and stretching to learn rhythm and counting. We also play music games and set easy-to-do home practice schedules -- to help children reach their musical potential.

Summer time singing
While some kids are taking a break this summer from music lessons, other kids are doing the opposite and enrolling in lessons. Summer is a great time to start learning an instrument because kids have extra time to spend at their instrument rather than being busy with school homework and events.
I remember as a kid, I was so bored in the summer and my music was the one thing that was fun to do. I would practise singing and playing songs that were pop hits. Yes, "four strong winds" was one of my favorites LOL! oh and "Sitting on the dock of the bay"... wasting time... was a perfect summer time song.
But, my favorite musical thing to do in the summer was music camp, where we would sing, dance and put a show on at the end of the week. My brother's music teacher hosted the camp at the church hall and those music camps bring back great memories. The crazy costumes, the silly theory lesson with corny music jokes "Beet oven" and all. Yes it was nerds ville learning the latest disco moves, but fun nonetheless!
At Errington little music school, I will add a little summer time camp feel to the summer lessons, we can play our fiddles outside and put on a pretend show for resident squirrels in the trees!

Singing at Agility
Looking forward to singing Auld Lang Syne with Dave at the upcoming dog agility trial at the mini award ceremony.
I really like Mairi Campbell's version that has been made famous in the Sex in the City Movie
Here is the youtube video

I got to hear Mairi sing this live at The Sunshine Coast School of Celtic Music a few summers ago. She also taught us some fiddle tunes -- she is a wonderful musician.
