The School has established a program for students wishing to learn a musical instrument or theory of music. These lessons are provided at the School, during school hours. They are conducted on a fee for service basis and are billed each term by the tutor.
Tuition is available for both Primary and Secondary students and the following instruments are available in 2023:
WOODWIND | BRASS | PERCUSSION | VOICE | STRINGS | OTHER |
Clarinet | Cornet | Drums | Singing | Cello | Theory |
Flute | Trombone | Piano | Singing with the option of beginner piano accompaniment | Violin | Brass/Woodwind Step Up program (group lessons – see note below*) |
Saxophone | Trumpet | – | – | Electric Bass Guitar | Vocals |
– | – | – | – | Guitar | Rock Band** |
– | – | – | – | – | – |
* The Brass / Woodwind Step Up program invites Year 7 students who were previously part of our Year 6 Brass / Woodwind Music classes, to continue their learning on either trumpet, trombone or saxophone in a group setting during weekly lunchtime lessons. New students to Moama Anglican Grammar who are interested in learning one of these instruments are also invited to join this exciting new program. These lessons will be conducted in a group setting and a reasonable fee, which is less than one-on-one co-curricular tuition, will be charged for participation in this group.
** Please note it is advantageous for students to already learn an instrument (such as piano, bass, guitar or vocals) if they wish to join a Rock Band. Limited places are available in our primary and Secondary Rock Bands.
