Half-term Holiday Music Camp

Join us for a week of making music and fun! With Marion Hinds. You don't need to have any previous musical knowledge, this course is for all levels of ability.

We'll be exploring rhythm through games, making up our own songs and learning to play our favourites (if you have a piece of music or a song you would particularly like to work on do share your suggestions with us!).

Music is a great way to learn to work together, but there will also be opportunity to spend time working on your own within the week of sessions.

Learn new skills, make new friends and have fun with music!

Monday 25 – Friday 29 May 2026.

Daily 09:00 AM – 5:00 PM, except Weds 09:00 AM – 12:30 PM ONLY.

Half-term course costs £50 per child.

Marion Hinds

A professional music educator with 30 years of experience working with children and adults, Marion holds a music college degree (studying trombone and piano) and has built a career as a music specialist in both secondary and primary schools. She has also served as a Senior Leader in Music Services and Music Education Hubs. Working across Inner London, Northwest Germany, Suffolk and Cumbria, she has led bands, choirs, and county youth ensembles and is passionate about Kodàly-inspired music education for all.

Zoltán Kodálybelieved that “music belongs toeverybody”. He advocated that active participation in making music develops a person on all levels, and that the best way to expand music education is through the natural ways children learn — through singing games, fun, and play —and by using the human voice—the instrument accessible to all.
