SHARING THE JOY OF MUSIC

ABOUT US

For more than 20 years, the staff at Notes Music School have been developing skilled musicians across every genre of music. We have students of every age and ability who choose us because they recognise the value of passion, knowledge and years of experience in the industry that we share with them.

At Notes, we recognise that every student is different. Our highly skilled teachers collectively have significant expertise across the genres of classical, jazz, contemporary, country, musical theatre and more. We are interested to hear about what your goals are with your music, and to help you reach them!

EXAMS

As students reach certain standards, they may wish to go through the exam system in order to gain qualifications useful for school and university entry. Our students have achieved consistently excellent results through both A.M.E.B. and A.N.Z.C.A.

We also have a number of V.C.E., V.E.T. and university music students who come to us for assistance in preparing for their theory and performance exams.

CANCELLATION POLICY

Notice before 9am on day of lesson is required for cancellations or rescheduling of lessons (either by email or by leaving a phone message).

If insufficient notice is given, lesson will be forfeited.

All lesson alterations must be made through reception only. Please do not call or text your teacher to reschedule/cancel lessons; this will not count as sufficient notice.

No cash refunds are given for missed or cancelled lessons (make-up lessons only).

Any make-up lessons owed need to be taken before the beginning of next term, otherwise they are forfeited.

TUITION

New students may wish to undertake a single trial lesson, paying for that lesson alone, before commencing their enrolment. Enrolment is a commitment the student makes on a term-by-term basis.

Invoices for a new term of lessons are sent out by email at least three weeks in advance of term beginning, and are due to be paid before lessons commence. Students beginning mid-term will only be billed for remaining weeks in the term.

There are two payment options available:

Half-term (two payments per term. First half-payment MUST be received by end of first week of term, or else full payment must be made).
Full term (one payment per term).

Smaller instalment payment options may be available in exceptional circumstances. Contact reception to discuss.

Payment may be made via direct deposit, cheque, cash or EFTPOS.

Payment cannot be refunded once a student has commenced their enrolment.

EQUIPMENT HIRE

If you would like to commence lessons in a particular instrument, but are unsure about whether you're ready to make the commitment to spend hundreds or perhaps thousands of dollars on buying the instrument just yet, we may be able to help! We have a limited amount of instruments available for hire by the week.

Contact our reception to see what we currently have in stock.
