Hi Concert Band Parents and Students.  

Apparently today is a public holiday due to the Queens Birthday.  That’s not really my thing, so I’m going to hold Zoom Band rehearsal for those who want to join me at 4pm at the usual link. I’m  keen for students to get onto FlipGrid and record a short video for me if possible before our meeting.  If you can’t do FlipGrid before our meeting, that’s okay, you can still join us.


FlipGrid Works best if you have two devices such as a computer and a smart phone (one device to play a recording and another to make a video).


To get onto FlipGrid you need to download the app if using phone or iPad.  On computer you simply go to FlipGrid.com


On main page you enter ‘dunanbandman’  for the Flip Code and then your student ID on the Concert Band Page.  If you’ve forgotten your code, I’ve texted them to you (note that the ID’s are case sensitive) and I’ve also put the Zoom Code at the Bottom of this message.  Again…there’s no pressure to join us today.
