Who is this for?

The centre will focus on developing band instruments and putting bands together. If you are interested in Guitar, Drums, Vocals or Keyboard, this is the place for you!

We will be running group lessons for KS2 and KS3-4 in Guitar, Drums, Keyboard and Vocals as well as running bands to give students the chance to practise their new skills.

Regular sessions will take place at De La Salle school, but are open to students from across Basildon and nearby areas. We welcome students aged 7 – 18.
