Throughout the year they have lessons as a group and perform to the school in a series of mini-concerts. At the end of the year, the children are given a choice whether to continue learning their instruments and form the school’s brass band. The brass band get to perform at the school’s carol concert and also get invited to perform at the prestigious Mayor’s Gala Concert and other Wandsworth Music festivals.

The Brass Band practise after school on Fridays with their Wandsworth Music teacher and have performed at concerts and school events.
