Percussion Workshops
The “one-off” Percussion Workshop provides an exciting music experience for students in Stages 2 & 3. Students will use traditional percussion instruments as well as learn body percussion practices from world music genres culminating in a short performance.
Cost: $75 per one hour session
Group Size: Up to twenty students
School Band

Playing in a band gives meaning to a student’s individual instrumental tuition. It encourages team-work and teaches listening and co-operation with others.
