Eligibility
The trip is open to students who will be in aged 15 or older in 2025 (although this can be discussed on a case by case basis). It will be best suited for students studying Music in year 10 - 13, or take itinerant music lessons (or take part of one of the Music Ensembles that regularly rehearse on a weekly basis). We would expect that all students attending the trip to have a good school behavioural record. Whilst we are not expecting to be over-subscribed our maximum capacity is approximately 40 students. If it was to be over-subscribed, we would need to look at factors such as commitment to music groups and involvement in co-curricular performing arts activities over both 2024 and 2025. As this trip is beyond the scope of the curriculum and is a voluntary event, the Board requires all school fees to be up to date.
Cost
The exchange rate and inflation costs has a big influence on the final price. Additional health and safety precautions we will be looking to undertake due to covid will also impact the final price. We are currently estimating a cost of about $8600. To help offset this cost, we will look at holding some fundraising activities such as Music Concerts. Students will also be encouraged to pursue fund raising activities such as busking.
Payments will be made in installments throughout the year. An initial payment of $1000 will be required at the end of Term 1, 2024 to secure your son's place.

Accompanying Parents
There may be provision to allow some parents to accompany the boys on the trip. There would be a cost, although would have some discount due to the shared travel and accommodation arrangements.
