Every child in St Agnes including 60 Early Start children and boys classes from Scoil Colm – a total of more than 400 children- receive weekly violin lessons in school. The instruments and tuition are provided without charge to the parents. No child is disadvantaged by the inability of a family to support an out-of-school activity. Research from round the world has shown that cognitive development, literacy and numeracy skills and above all attention focus benefit enormously from learning a musical instrument at a young age.Come and hear the fruits of their 2012 summer camp with members of St Agnes/Scoil Colm Primary School Orchestra, secondary past pupils and St Agnes Parents’ String Orchestra – chamber music and string orchestra. |
