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 />
