MUSIC PROGRAMMES

We have an instrument for everyone.

Our classes provide primary and intermediate-aged children with the opportunity to learn a musical instrument at affordable rates, helping them develop a lifelong love of music.

​

Pre-Instrumental & Kindy classes

Our Pre-Instrumental classes are designed for children aged 4 to 6 years, offering an introduction to music through simple, enjoyable activities. In this course, children will explore basic musical concepts such as rhythm, melody, and coordination in a fun and supportive setting. It's a great starting point for building a strong foundation in music, which will help when they transition to learning an instrument later on.
 

Choosing the Right Instrument

For older students, we recommend starting with instruments like the recorder, ukulele, or keyboard. These are ideal for beginners, offering a solid musical foundation that will make it easier to progress to more complex instruments later on. If you're unsure which instrument to choose, these are great options to consider. For more detailed guidance based on age and school year, check our FAQ page for recommendations.

​

Free Ensembles

We offer some free ensemble sessions where students can practice and perform together, building their musical skills and confidence.

​

Instrument Hire

We provide a range of instruments for hire, making it easy for students to get started without needing to purchase their own instruments.
