Music Tech Classes (age 8+)

Fridays (term time):

3:30–4:30pm (Beginner)

In small group lessons (max. 8), students learn how to create their own tracks using Soundtrap. From building beats and adding instruments to using effects and mixing on DJ decks, they’ll gain the skills to express themselves musically and take their projects to the next level. Students will receive a full Soundtrap licence, so they can continue learning and creating from home.
