Itinerant music lessons
If your son chooses music as one of his option subjects, he will enjoy participating in music-making as a soloist and part of a quality music group as part of the music classes offered in Years 9 to 13.
Tuition is offered in various instruments (including voice), however lessons
(20-30 minutes) are only available to boys who choose music as one of their option subjects. There are currently half-year and full-year options available. Further information – there is a link to Music Information on the Enrolments/General Information page of the school website www.shirley.school.nz
Choosing the right instrument is a most important factor in musical success. Your son’s preferred instrument may not necessarily be the most suitable. If you would like help in choosing an instrument or have any queries, please email Kate Hays, HOD Music at kmh@shirley.school.nz
