Music
Tin Whistle
St Colman's is proud of it's music tradition. We provide all children in the school with opportunities to play a variety of instruments.
Tin whistle lessons are for pupils in P4 -
P7 & Mr. O'Faogain's and Mrs. Devlin's classes.
Lessons are 20 minutes long and take place on a Tuesday with Mr. Davey.
All pupils should have their own 'D' whistle and music book. Children are asked to make a contribution each term to assist with the costs.
String Tuition
Pupils from P4 are selected for tuition by means of ear-tests, rhythm tests and the Bentley Test.
Cello Lessons take place on a Monday from 1:30 - 3:00 pm.- Mr. Jeremy Lawrence is our peripatetic cello teacher from SEELB.
Violin lessons are on a Tuesday from 12:00 - 3:15 pm. Mrs. Kathleen Corr is our peripatetic violin teacher from the SEELB.
Pupils who are timetabled for tuition may leave their cellos and violins in the Music Room at the start of the day for safe keeping.
School Orchestra
The orchestra uses the School Open Night, Christmas Concerts, Confirmation & First Communion as opportunities to perform. Rehersals take place on Fridays from 2pm - 3pm in the Music Room.
The orchestra is comprised of pupils from P5/6/7. Pupils who are taught by the peripatetic music staff are required to join. Any other pupils learning an instrument outside of school are welcome to attend after an audition with Mrs. McClements.
