Learning an instrument is one of the most rewarding and challenging things young people can do. It encourages discipline, commitment, tenacity, and resilience, and there are several studies which show correlation between musical training and academic success. Indeed, musical learning stimulates large portions of the brain, improving memory, recall, and abstract reasoning skills.
Learning an instrument also opens the door to a fantastic community of music makers of all types, and is a perfect way to build confidence, relieve stress, and generally have a lot of fun!

Which Instrument?
Flute Tuition
*subject to availability

For younger children, curved head joints (making the instrument shorter and therefore more accessible) are available to hire through our rental package (subject to availability).

As your child grows, we will swap it for a normal head joint with the curved head joint being returned.
Clarinet Tuition
*subject to availability
-
For younger children, mini clarinets are available to hire through our rental package (subject to availability).
-
As your child grows, the mini clarinet is returned to us and replaced with a full-sized clarinet (no effect to the community rental contract length – 6 terms).
Saxophone Tuition
*subject to availability
-
Ideally need to be Year 5/6 due to its size.
-
For younger children, mini saxophones are available to hire through our rental package (subject to availability).
-
Note: We do not offer saxophones as part of our rental package at present so the mini saxohpone would have to be returned to us and an instrument brought when child is big enough.
-
Alternatively, younger children may choose to start in a clarinet and transfer their skills to saxophone.
