Dear Fair Oak Family,
We have had worrying reports of children playing ‘chicken’ with cars on the road whilst walking home. The children are being reminded of the dangers of roads and we will continue to monitor the situation. Please can we ask you to support us with this and also speak with your children around the dangers faced on the way to and from school? Thank you as always for your ongoing support.

- Dear parents (of Years 3, 4 and 5 pupils),
Following our Rock2theBeat tutor performance in school recently, we would just like to remind you that the deadline to sign up to the Rock2theBeat project from September is Friday 7 May. We may not be able to accommodate any sign ups after this date.
Kind Regards,
The Hampshire Music Service Rock2theBeat team
"Rock 2 the Beat"
Our aim is to deliver expert tuition for children in contemporary Rock and Pop music, focusing on both individual skills and playing within an ensemble. The instruments taught as part of the project are electric guitar, bass guitar, keyboard, drums and voice.
Teaching is via a mix of small group skills-based lessons and whole band sessions. Alongside this, a comprehensive set of resources are available to support learning outside of the sessions, which include song music, instructional videos, technical exercises and backing tracks to practise along to.
The programme is delivered by two experienced HMS teachers who have extensive experience not only in instrumental tuition but also in performance.
Rock 2 the Beat is delivered on a term-by-term basis with a performance at the end of each one, giving the pupils the chance to showcase everything they have learnt to their peers, friends and family.
The cost of Rock 2 the Beat is £25 per month, which is payable by direct debit to Hampshire Music Service. This includes all of the lessons, instrument to take home and practise with and access to all of the resources.

Deadline: Friday 7 May 2021

Kind Regards,
Greg Walker
Rock2theBeat Team Leader
