Stomp began at Springwood this week on Wednesday morning, with a good number turning up. A very exciting activity and a real buzz happening. A reminder that this ensemble is for students in Years 3-6.

This week Mr Patrick Farrell visited Years 4-6 and presented a Bass Guitar demonstration. The kids enjoyed watching him play and hearing the different things the Bass Guitar can do. It is great to have Mr Farrell back on campus.

Private Lessons are $38 per half hour and Group Lessons of 2 people are $19 per half hour (Subject to numbers) Use the following link if you would like to sign your child up for lessons.
