All courses are free, but applications are essential - you cannot just turn up on the day. Places are limited, so book now to avoid disappointment via http://www.sloughmusicservice.co.uk/holcourse.shtml. These courses are tutored by Slough Music Service teachers and workshops leaders from outside companies, all of whom are highly experienced and trained in their area of specialism. All adults are subject to CRB checks and child protection and first aid trained staff are present at all times.
