Join our Summer Band for ages 8-16!
We’re inviting young musicians for 3 days of music making at Middlesbrough Town Hall, as part of this summer’s holiday activities and food programme (HAF). Our band is open to all abilities, including young people who have never played an instrument, and all instruments (including non-orchestral).
After you’ve signed up, we’ll ask what instrument you play and for a description of your ability level so that we can make we have all the right music on the day. Don’t worry if you don’t read music – our tutors will be on hand during the day to support musicians who learn music through alternative methods. If you don’t play an instrument yet, or can’t bring your instrument with you – you’ll be able to borrow one of ours.
Throughout the 3 days our band will learn 4 songs, as well as taking part in games, crafting and other fun activities.
Our Tutor Team
Ben – Guitar, Bass, Fretted Strings, Piano, Drums/Percussion
Sammy – Clarinet, Saxophone, other Wind & Strings
Christina – Vocals, Keyboards, Violin & other Strings
Although none of our team play brass instruments we will support brass players the best we can!
Activities will take place from 10am-2pm on Monday 11th, Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th August.
This event is part of Middlesbrough Council’s Bring It On! holiday programme, funded by the Department for Education.
Bring It On! is the new name for the holiday activities and food (HAF) programme in Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland. Bring It On! runs during the school holidays to offer free, fun activities and food to children and young people aged 5 to 16 years. We understand that the school holidays can be a challenging time for parents, and the HAF can help with this. HAF programmes aim to support low-income families, particularly those in receipt of benefits related free school meals.
