Rewarding your effort made as easy as child's play with Hopscotch

Your teacher will notify you when your child is ready to take and pass a  Music Medal exam.  Basically the student plays one solo, one "part" in a duo, trio or larger ensemble. Finally the student performs a task, sight reading, call and respond; make a tune.

The whole exam is video taped with your permission and sent off for adjudication at the Associate Board. You can find out more by following the link below.
