Exciting news! From Wednesday 21st February 2024 we will be welcoming Rocksteady Music School into Marden Primary Academy. It’s an incredible opportunity for your children to learn to play their favourite songs in their very own band with a choice of drums, keyboards, electric guitar, bass guitar or vocals.

As well as learning new musical skills, lessons also boost children’s confidence, wellbeing, social skills and teamwork. Lessons take place every week during school time. 

These fun and inclusive lessons are taught by highly trained, professional musicians who know how to inspire a life-long love of music. At the end of each term each band will perform in a concert for the school and their families, so you can see how far they have come! A musical workshop has already taken place in school, where the children tried out the instruments and saw what it is like to learn to play in a band.

Here’s what you need to know:

-     All instruments are provided

-     No musical experience necessary

-     Suitable for all ages

-     Most lessons take place during school time

-     Your child will learn up to 300 instrument, band, and performance skills
