When you think of absolutely everything that needs to happen for a group of people to bring a piece of music to life, it’s astonishing that ensemble music-making isn’t at the heart of education and society more broadly. Making music together is the ultimate form of togetherness.

Everything shouldn’t just be about job and earning potential. There needs to be more of a focus on people potential - the potential of people to become the very best version of themselves, whatever that might be or look like. Music is a wonderful releaser of people potential.
We live in an age where almost everything is instant, achievable, and gratifying, and if it isn’t, there’s almost always an easy fix. Not so with learning music. It isn’t easy, you have to persevere, and you have many ups and downs along the way. But, it’s oh so worth it.
Assistant principals do so much to support our principals, our teachers – and most importantly, our students!
