School String Group
STRING GROUP
In 2005 Leichhardt Public School added an extra dimension to its music and band programs with the introduction of a String Group. The group now has a membership of fifty students, ranging in age from 5 through to 10. The students meet every Friday morning for tuition in violin, cello and double bass. This tuition is provided by three of our talented parents, Penny Rees, Kirsty McCahon and Kees Boersma, who are all professional musicians. The group perform at special school functions including the school’s Musicale and Grandparents Day and the Instrumental String Festival held at the Sydney Opera House.
