Violin Club at The Priory C of E Primary School

Learn violin at school

We are delighted to announce a new violin after-school club for Year 4 and Year 5 pupils, led by Helena Hafsteinsdóttir (Miss H).

The club will take place on Fridays from 3:15pm to 4:00pm and will provide children with the opportunity to learn and develop their violin skills in a fun and supportive environment. Whether your child is a complete beginner or has some previous experience, they are welcome to join.

Cost = £68 per term (inclusive of instrument hire fee).

A young girl wearing glasses and a strawberry-patterned dress plays the violin during her instrumental lessons, looking at sheet music on a stand in front of her. She has a red and white striped hairband in her hair.

Key Info

The cost of this group is subsidised by Merton Music Foundation, the total fee is £68 for the term.

This includes 10 x 45 minute group lessons charged at £54 and instrument hire at the reduced rate of £15, so that your child can practise at home.

If you already have a violin, you won’t need to pay for the hire fee.
