NEW STRINGS PROGRAM With the appointment of a new Head of Strings, Rex Carr-White, St Hilda’s is reimagining our approach to our strings program in the Junior School. In 2022, St Hilda’s will be introducing the Beginner Primo Strings program which has been designed to create a more sustainable approach to developing life-long string players, who have a passion for their instrument.

There is enormous benefit in children starting to learn a string instrument at an early age. They progress faster and begin to build it into their routines at an earlier stage, giving them a strong foundation that supports an ongoing love for the instrument.

With this in mind, students from Pre Primary through to Year 4 can participate in the strings program. The program is not compulsory; only those interested in playing a string instrument can take up this experience.

To ensure each child receives the individual attention they need in order to learn a complex instrument, there will be a limit on the number of places offered. We look forward to bringing this reimagined program to our Junior School in 2022.
