Tyndale Primary School

Learn an Instrument

Through our partnership with the local music hub, we are able to offer children the opportunity to learn to play an instrument through small group or individual instrumental lessons.

In addition to our Music Curriculum, we support all children to learn a range of instruments from years three to six. We offer four programmes (free of charge) of instrumental learning through whole class ensemble teaching. The programmes offer children the opportunity to learn an instrument from four different instrument families.

  • Year 3 - Strings: violin, viola, cello and ukulele
  • Year 4 - Woodwind: clarinet, Jsax, recorder, fife and flute
  • Year 5 - Brass: cornet, trumpet, trombone and french horn
  • Year 6 - Drumming: samba and djembe

Children are able to hire (free of charge) an instrument of their choice from years three to six.

In addition, we offer instrumental (individual and group) lessons to children. To learn an instrument in a small group or individually, please click here.
