YOU MUST REGISTER ONLINE IMMEDIATELY IF YOUR NAME DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE SECURITY LIST WHICH YOU INITIAL WHEN YOU ARRIVE AT SBS. THIS IS ESSENTIAL FOR SAFETY AND SECURITY REASONS
Communication It is our policy to make sure that we as management communicate necessary and important information to you as frequently as possible and we will always endeavour to give you all plenty of notice with regard to concerts, rehearsals etc.. Similarly we understand that you all are busy so if you cannot attend a rehearsal or have a clash with a particular concert then please give us plenty of notice so that we know which players we can roster on and/or off.Adopting this strategy when setting your own schedules will provide you with the necessary preparation for professional life no matter which path you eventually take.
