For children aged 8 - 12 attending local
primary schools.
AWMC takes place on Saturday mornings, 9.30am

- Learning to play an instrument
The Centre is currently offering flute, clarinet, drums (kit and
hand drumming), keyboard, trumpet, saxophone, violin and guitar
(including some electric guitar). Most children borrow an instrument
to take home and practice. (There is no extra charge for this).
- Singing
In larger groups (20-30)
- Music workshop
Creative music making, composing, songwriting, musical games (in
larger groups)
- Ensemble
Playing music together in small and large groups
There is also a break midway through the morning
(about 20 minutes). Children are welcome to bring a drink and/or
snack
Cost
The cost for each term is £20 or free for parent/carers whose
children are eligible for free school meals. (Each term will normally
last for ten sessions).
There may be other circumstances where parent/carers
are suffering financial hardship in which case they are encouraged
to apply for a bursary, which will cover the total cost of attending
the Centre. No parent/carer should feel that their child can not
come to the Centre for financial reasons. (If you would like to
apply for a bursary, please contact GMS).
Applications:
We welcome applications from across the
Borough of Greenwich but will give priority to applicants attending
schools in Thamesmead, Abbey Wood, Plumstead and Woolwich.
Application forms should be available at
your child's school, or contact
us and we will send you one or download
an application form here and print it yourself (pdf format).
Parent/carers should then complete the form
and return it to school. If you need more information, please contact
us.
