Summer Session's Frequently Asked Questions
1. We are not a musical family. Would my child still enjoy the program/camp?
Absolutely!!
Our camps are designed to accommodate diversity: from children who aren’t sure what music is all about and this will be their first experience to children that have participated in the school choir and want to learn and explore more.
Our programs will fully immerse you child in the world of music in a positive and encouraging environment. We are sure your child will be eager to share with you his/her musical experiences of the day.
2. Do I need to purchase a musical instrument for my child to practice at home?
Yes, the development of a physical skill happens through repetition. Therefore, your child will benefit even more when she/he has the opportunity to practice at home what was learned during the lesson.
You do not have to spend an outrageous amount of money to acquire an instrument for your child. If you do not own already an instrument you can rent one on a weekly or monthly basis (guitars for aprox. $15 p/month, keyboards for aprox. $35 p/month). We will be happy to assist you to find the best fit should you want to rent an instrument.
3. What is the experience of the instructors?
All our instructors are music specialists with areas of expertise in various musical disciplines (piano, voice, guitar, music education) and styles (jazz, world music, classical, pop.)
4. How do I register and pay with an E-transfer?
You will need to complete your registration online.
