Pupils from P5 to P7 are offered the opportunity of specialised tuition to learn a range of instruments. Sessions become available for this throughout the year.

Further details are available on request.
In a more formal setting, concerts involving drama, dance and music are presented to parents, friends and other links within our local community. Taking part in these presentations can help pupils develop skills in self-expression, with evidence of a visible increase in self-confidence.
