Bands, Orchestras and Theory Groups

STARter Groups

Starter Groups start in September each year. 

Group lessons are a great way of introducing students to learning a musical instrument.

Our STARter Groups are a wonderful way of getting into the Trumpet, Clarinet, Cello, Guitar, Recorder, Trombone or Violin. 

Members of the KMS STARter Groups are all beginners. They learn together, sing together and have fun together. Groups start in September and finish in July with a Concert for parents. STARter Groups cost £85 per term of 10 sessions. As a STARter Group member you get 50% off instrument hire

If you are in receipt of benefits which entitle your child to Free School Meals (Pupil Premium), we can offer a 50% discount on STARTer Groups via our Bursary Scheme.
