We have been running our Baby Strings programme in Thorntree since 2015. All children from P1 to P5 (P5 in Terms 1 and 2, P1 in Terms 3 and 4) receive whole class music instruction from qualified tutors on either the violin, viola or cello. Playing a musical instrument develops both fine and gross motor skills, co-ordination, listening, reading and teamwork skills alongside so many other fantastic lifelong attributes. In P5 to P7 children have the choice to receive more tailored tuition on their instrument in smaller groups and can take this musical skill on with them to secondary school and beyond! We are extremely proud of our Baby Strings programme and the success our learners have achieved through it. We perform to parents and carers several times a year and love to show off just how wonderful our musical abilities are!
