School Holiday Programs

School Holiday Music Camp 5 – 12yrs

For kids aged 5 – 12yrs old. Our music camps often SELL OUT so be sure to get in early and secure your place at our next School Holiday Music Camp. With more new workshops, experiences and music to learn, it’s no wonder the students keep coming back. The kids will have the opportunity to write their own song and perform it. There’s no experience needed with learning an instrument as we always find something for the kids to play, but if you already play or learn an instrument, then you’re most welcome to play it.

Space is limited to keep numbers to a minimum and ensure maximum FUN for each individual student.

The program will take place over two (2) days and parents / family members will be invited to a short mini showcase on day two (2). Our teachers have WWC clearance, are experienced and ready to enrich your child’s life with some musical magic. FREE before and after care is provided from 8:00am – 5:00pm.

Our school holiday music camp will see your child become a superstar artist. They’ll transform themselves into being ‘pros’ by attending our workshops and instrumental discovery sessions. They’ll work with fellow co-songwriters to produce, write and perform their very own original song and develop new friendships and experiences that is unlike any other program.

No experience necessary, just a good attitude and a willingness to have lots of musical fun.

Along the way there’s instrumental bingo, ping pong soccer, trivia, name that instrument, special guest workshops, masterclasses and many other amazing musical activities and games that’s as fun as it is educational!

SAFETY AND SUPERVISION
The teachers involved are all professional music instructors who have completed a ‘Working with Children Check’. Program participant numbers are capped to ensure your child’s safety and to ensure your child gets the most out of their school holiday activities. If a child is disruptive, refuses to heed instructions, they may be removed from the program and all fees will be forfeited. However, teachers will initially discuss this with the parent beforehand.
