Sonic Boom Rock School will continue this year with teachers Will O’Connor and the return of Tim Hulsman to the classroom. The lovely Leticia Bayliss has moved on toward exciting career prospects so we wish her well.
New music teachers will be starting during the year to cover the huge amount of student who want to learn instrumental music…what fun!
As usual, available at every lesson are a variety of instruments for the children to explore and cross reference back to their main chosen instrument.

Learning opportunities are presented to the children in the form of private instrumental tuition or the rock band program and culminate in concert performances bi-annually (or more frequently if appropriate)
There are many peripheral and transferrable benefits from learning music, including:
· Development of non-verbal communication skills
· Increased activity in the area of the brain concerned with Mathematics & Language.
· Problem solving
· Improvement in social behaviour.
· Increased confidence based on skill acquisition, public speaking and performance experience
· Listening, at a deeper level
· Working precisely together as a team
· Mastery of skills / discipline
· Hand-eye coordination
· Meditative states and the ability to focus intensely for longer periods of time.
