School of Music<br />
As<br />
Did you know that musical training<br />
can change brain structure and function<br />
for the better? It can also improve longterm<br />
memory and lead to better brain<br />
development, particularly for those<br />
who start at a young age. So why wait<br />
any longer?? Come and join us at the<br />
Christchurch School of Music!<br />
CSM is a not-for-profit organisation with<br />
a strong focus on community. From ages 2<br />
to 92 we have something for everyone. On<br />
a Saturday morning the whole family can<br />
find something to suit.<br />
For the young ones there are pre-school<br />
and junior school classes, “Take Off with<br />
Music”, 41/2 year olds can start on Suzuki<br />
strings and at 6 the recorder is a great<br />
instrument to learn. In <strong>2019</strong> we have a<br />
fantastic deal for beginner recorder players<br />
– just $52 for a year of tuition and this<br />
includes a recorder and a book!!<br />
Older children and adults may opt for<br />
group or individual lessons on a specific<br />
instrument (including voice). With six<br />
orchestras, two concert bands, a Big Band,<br />
a jazz combo, six wind ensembles, rock<br />
bands, two choirs, chamber groups, a<br />
samba band and a guitar ensemble there is<br />
an ensemble to suit all levels and all ages.<br />
If affordability is an issue, CSM may be<br />
able to offer a discount through funding<br />
provided by the Rata Foundation.<br />
