Music Classes for 2-8 year olds
Are you looking for a new activity for your child?
Our Step into Music programme on Saturdays at Wimbledon College is for children aged 2-8 and is the perfect environment to nurture a lifelong love of music.
Children can explore the building blocks of music through singing, games and performing on a range of instruments. Carefully structured weekly sessions, led by an experienced music tutor will create a nurturing environment for children to create, explore and enjoy music and acting. As they move through the programme, children will begin to develop a strong sense of musicality which will help them make quick progress in a 1-2-1 or small group instrumental setting.
