Instrumental and vocal lessons
Would you like to learn to sing or play an instrument?
We have a vibrant, specialist, dedicated teaching team here at the Senior School. They are on hand to help and advise you, equipping you with the essential skills you need to enjoy performing, both on your own and in larger groups or ensembles. Some of our teachers are specialists on more than one instrument and it really doesn’t matter if you are a complete beginner, or more advanced – we have students of all levels learning a wide range of instruments, including:
● Brass: Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone,
Baritone, Euphonium, French Horn, Tenor
Horn, Tuba ● Guitar: Classical, Folk, Electric, Bass ● Piano ● Singing: Classical, Pop, Jazz ● Strings: Violin, Viola, Cello, Double Bass ● Woodwind: Oboe, Flute, Piccolo, Clarinet ● Drums The BSN employs all school based instrumental teachers directly. This means that the BSN pays teachers for hours worked and then bills parents accordingly.
Instrumental tuition is available for all students, from Year 7 to 13. Daytime lessons for some instruments are open to students in Year 7, 8 and 9, with the full range of instruments available after school.
Daytime lessons are available in drum kit, classical and acoustic guitar, electric guitar, piano and voice. This solves the problem of organising transport after school, and avoids potential clashes with other school activities. For more information visit the Music site on Compass.
Remember, you do not have to be studying music to participate in the performance groups!
How do I register for lessons?
Registration for instrumental lessons is handled via Compass under the My Child tab under Trips, Clubs & Activities and your parents need to complete the form.
