Instrumental Music

At Flagstaff Hill Primary School, we recognise the overall benefits of learning and playing a musical instrument.

2025 Instrumental Music Expressions of Interest

Students in year 3-6 have the opportunity to learn an instrument at school in 2025. Qualified instrumental teachers are supplied through the Department for Education's Instrumental Music Program, and we allow students time out of their regular classroom to attend lessons – ½ an hour each week. 
Lessons are capped at a certain number of students and priority is given to the youngest year level eligible. Once numbers are reached students will go on a waiting list. 
Final instrument selection will be at the discretion of the instrumental teacher and will depend on student’s size, hand span, teeth position and instrument availability. 
As the lesson cost is funded by the Department for Education, students can only participate in 1 Department Instrumental program, not both. 

Strings (Violin, Viola, Cello) – No tuition Fee - Year 3-6 
String lessons taught by department teacher Kirsty. 
Students in year 3 in 2025 are given first priority for lessons. 

Woodwind & Brass - Clarinet, Flute, Saxophone, Trumpet and Trombone – No tuition Fee - Year 5-6 
Brass and Woodwind lessons taught by Jo. 
Students in year 5 in 2025 are given first priority for lessons. 
Instrument choice will depend on student’s size, hand span, teeth position and instrument availability.
