Our Saturday morning football programme starts on Saturday 5th September and runs for 12 weeks. We are based on the grass at Roundwood Park School. Our sessions are for children or all abilities who are in school years Reception - Year 9.
Children are grouped according to the school year they are in. Please contact [email protected] for further information.
Mini Mozart classes bring the magic of live music to babies, toddlers and their grown-ups in a relaxed, friendly and interactive way.
Each class combines live music performed by professional musicians with singing, stories, movement, instruments, props and plenty of opportunities for little ones to join in. Children are introduced to the sounds of real instruments playing classical music from an early age, while developing listening, communication, coordination and social skills — all while having lots of fun!
And there's exciting news for Harpenden families: a brand-new Babies class is launching from 7th September! We believe that all humans are born musical - we're just there to encourage and celebrate this joyous gift! Our classes are designed especially for our youngest musicians by encouraging their innate musicality as well as promoting confidence for families to be as musical as possible both at classes and at home.
Come and join us in Harpenden on Monday morning at the Salvation Army on Leyton Green and make live music a part of your little one's world from the very beginning. Click here to book.
