SCHOOL HOLIDAY MUSIC ACTIVITIES

ROUSE HILL

School holidays mean music! This October we are encouraging children and young people who don’t play an instrument already to give it a go!! Our BUILD A BAND Workshop is the chance for budding musicians to experience the thrill of playing in a band! For young musicians studying to take AMEB exams, why not brush up your sight reading, aural and general knowledge skills with Ann, or if you’d just like a bit more practice, our teachers are offering the opportunity to take additional lessons during the holidays. Make new friends, develop your skills and confidence and have fun away from a screen these holidays.

These 3 workshops are designed to complement regular lessons and will help students taking AMEB piano and violin exams with 3 key, examined areas – sight reading, aural skills, and general knowledge.

These workshops provide a supportive environment to ask questions, try new techniques, and gain valuable insights into exam preparation.

Suitable for students studying for Level 1 exams i.e. Prelim – Grade 4 in piano and violin.

Students studying at Level 2 i.e. Grade 5 and above (Grade 3 and above in the case of Aural) , one-on-one sessions are available.

AMEB Grade 1 & 2 Theory

Contact us for details

As students progress to higher-level AMEB practical exams (Grade 4 and above), they are required to complete a Theory exam. In these engaging and informative 1.5-hour sessions, Ann will cover all the essential theory knowledge needed for success—explaining the content, breaking down each topic, and showing students exactly how to approach and answer the exam questions.

Whilst preference will be given to Maxx Music Students, these workshops are open to any child or young person taking AMEB exams
