Charged Lessons

Drums, Piano, Singing, Guitar: We are also able to offer ‘individual’ lessons by qualified private tutors. 

These are Private Lessons held during the school day at King’s and are charged by the private tutor. They cost between $22-$25 per lesson. These lessons are individual ‘one on one’ except in the case of Drums where the tutor is offering a variety of options at different rates (both 1-1 and group). This year we can also offer discounted piano and guitar lessons to the first 10 enrolled students, through the Modern School of Music.
