Lord Mayor of Westminster's Event
In March 2018, we held an event at the Lord Mayor of Westminster's parlour, which brought together representatives from education, music industry, arts and culture, local and central government to raise awareness of the importance of music education to children and young people.
The event featured a short performance by the Tri-Borough Folk Ensemble, who played a thrilling fusion of folk and traditional music. Photos from the event can be viewed by clicking the button below!

We are asking all current members to use the online booking system to do one of three things:
  1. RENEW your child's current provision next year. Use this option if no details have changed (parental address, emergency contact, school attended etc.).
    NOTE: Even if you have only just signed up for new activity this summer, you will still need to complete a new form for Sept 2018.
  2. Renew but CHANGE the provision or UPDATE some information. Use this option if details have changed (parental address, phone, emergency contact, eligibility for fee concession, etc.)
  3. CANCEL your child's music hub provision from the end of this term.
We are requesting that all applications for classes are signed up to by Friday 8th June. It is absolutely essential that all parents/carers do this so we can ensure that all classes are prepared for before the summer holidays break.
