The Summer Music Program is a pivotal component of our commitment to Music Education. The key characteristic of this program is the development of requisite skills and knowledge for effective teaching and learning in Music.
Featuring highly experienced Australian music educators, courses are offered for teachers in Early Childhood, Primary and Secondary classroom music specialists. Special programs are available for secondary (years 10-12) and tertiary students as well as a childrens’ choir for singers aged 8-14 yrs.
Interested members of the public are also welcome to attend.
