Every child in Years 3 and 4 learns an instrument, and the school provides it. Not a recorder for everyone — an actual choice, made after a term of trying several, with the instrument loaned free for two years.

About a third carry on past Year 5. We consider the other two thirds a success as well: they have played in an ensemble, read notation, and found out that music is something you do rather than something that arrives through a speaker.
