EHPS Band

Erina Heights Public School provides a wonderful music enrichment program to cater for the
needs and interests of all students. Students in Years 3 to 6 can enrol in either the Concert or Training Band. The school and a parent committee manage and support the Training band and Concert band throughout the year. This support includes retaining the services of the Central Coast Conservatorium which provides the school with professional musicians who are experts in their own field.
 
The Central Coast Conservatorium's Schools Music Program offers students the opportunity to learn music through an instrumental program. It is also a wonderful opportunity for students to engage with their peers and develop new friendships through music making. The Conservatorium provides staff who are all professional musicians and qualified music educators, offering students expert music tuition. Students are given a half hour tutorial weekly, where they are given practical lessons on their instrument and learn how to read music and scores. Whole band tutorials are held weekly for an hour, this is when students apply what they have learnt in tutorials to a whole band situation
 
The Erina Heights Public School Training and Concert Bands perform at the conclusion of each term for our parents and friends. They will also have opportunities to perform for our local community, at the Central Coast Band Festival, interschool workshops and school assemblies.

At the 2016 Central Coast Band Festival our EHPS Concert Band was awarded a Gold Award and Training Band received a Bronze Award!
