Mr Forryan - Notes of the Week 21st January 2011

Rockschool Exams

Well done to everyone who passed their Rockschool exams in December, special mention should go to Adam Tarrier - who achieved 88% in his first exam and to Elliot Carr - who passed Grade 2 with a Distinction and Laurence Baltrop who pass Grade 6, but well done to everyone you all did very well!

Practice Tip of the Week


Remember that it is always better to do 10 minutes of practice every day rather than 30 mins the night before your lesson.
