Interested in Joining the Band Program?

We welcome new students who will be in Years 3, 4, 5, or 6 next year. (If your child is younger than this, we look forward to meeting them when they are in Year 3). No prior music experience is required. Band Information Packs is also available at https://portal.msmusic.com.au/artarmonmusic

It is essential that parents read the 2019 Band Information Pack to fully understand the costs and commitments for both parents and students before registering their child. To register your child to join the band, click on the ‘New Student Registration’ button on the same screen. If you already have a child in the music program you can also use the ‘Add Student’ button in the MySchoolMusic parent portal.

The deadline for applying for new band applications is Friday 16 November 2018 as instrument try-outs will take place the following week. Don’t be late!!
