Music making outside the classroom

West of England Music and Arts is committed to providing fun, inclusive and educational music activities outside the classroom. These give children and young people in North Somerset, South Gloucestershire and Bath and North East Somerset, valuable opportunities to make friends, learn new skills and explore many different types of music, from choir singing, to musicals, jazz, folk and more.

These workshops and music days take place throughout the year, so find out what’s coming up by using the Calendar below. We also keep costs to a minimum and many are free to children who are eligible for Pupil Premium.

Don’t forget – our Music Centres also provide a chance for regular music making, fun and friendship. Check out the Music Centres link opposite to find out more.
