Music
Peripatetic music lessons:
At Hamworthy Primary School, we also offer additional lessons where we have introduced peripatetic drum and guitar lessons which are currently accessed from Years 5 and 6.
Guitar lessons are taught by Mr Joy and drum lessons are taught by Mr Lacey.
To ensure that this opportunity is offered across the school, these lessons over time will be offered to more children.
The benefits of learning an instrument go far beyond musical achievement:
- Increased self esteem
- Better general attainment and creativity
- Increased sense of identity
- Enhanced social skills
- Better critical thinking skills
- Improves physical co-ordination
- Confidence and enjoyment
