Instrumental Music
A number of Education Queensland instrumental teachers work in our school on a weekly basis. These teachers/musicians tutor children in a range of instruments. Children are able to commence string instruction in year three, and wind, brass and percussion in year four. A recruitment information evening is held late in the year for the following year. If your child is enrolling from another school and was involved in an instrumental program, please notify the office or Arts teacher if interested in playing a musical instrument. Some instruments are available on loan for 12 months - the loan fee is $30 annually.
Participants in the Instrumental Music Program will be asked to pay a levy of $50 annually to assist with the purchase of sheet music, instrument repairs and band furniture.
Band
Currajong State School has a school band of which we are proud. Members of the band are drawn from children learning instrumental music at school.
All children who join the band are required to wear a band uniform, and be correctly dressed for all performances. Children who are incorrectly dressed will not be permitted to participate.
