    NEW INVOICING SYSTEM
    - Introduced this term
    This term we introduced a new invoicing system which allows us to include
    more information in our invoices and to deliver them to you via email. We are
    aware that some of our customers were inconvenienced in the system
    changeover. We do apologise if this affected you and thank you for your
    patience. Please be assured that we are committed to ongoing improvement
    in our administration systems and appreciate all suggestions and feedback
    you offer. It is your communication with us which allows us to recognise
    systems that are working and those requiring change.

    TERM 4 STUDENT CONCERTS
    - Performance opportunities for all Lewis Eady Students
    Student concerts will take place at our partner schools and at our Remuera Music Centre next
    term. We encourage all children to take up this opportunity to share their music with family and
    friends in a very supportive environment. Each Lewis Eady student will be offered a place in
    their school’s concert.
    End of year reports will be written for each student this term. They will be given to your child at
    their last lesson of the year.
    CAMPBELL MACKENIE @ SUPERNOVA!

    10 year old Campbell started learning guitar with us only three years ago. He was the star performer at Starship’s recent Guardian Angel Society launch, and next month - on September 16, he will debut at Vector Arena at Starship’s Supernova fundraising concert.

    Campbell will continue his fundraising efforts for Starship in the band line-up at the Lewis Eady Rock on a Mission fundraising concert to be held at Snowplanet on October 10. All proceeds from Rock on a Mission will also be donated to Starship foundation.

    Says Campbell:
    “Lewis Eady has helped me so much with my music and guitar skills. They have a great holiday programme called Rock School and I love going there. The tutors are awesome and are a lot of fun. Music is my life!”

    Lewis Eady Rock School students Rosie and Campbell both feature in this Michael Jackson tribute.
