A free music group aimed at children and young people with additional needs restarts this January at Bohunt School in Worthing.
Orchestras Inc. is an incredible SEND ensemble run by West Sussex Music and is open to children and young people with additional needs, including those attending special schools, those at mainstream schools or colleges with additional needs and those who are home schooled.
The group is open to young people with a parent or carer for support. No previous experience is required but activities are suited to children and young people from 8 years old up to 25yrs.
Orchestras Inc. meets at Worthing Music Centre, based at Bohunt School Worthing, 65a Broadwater Road, Worthing, BN14 8AH.
The sessions run from 10.30am until 11.30am and will run on the following dates –
- Saturday 17 January
- Saturday 24 January
- Saturday 31 January
- Saturday 7 February
Alison Sutton, Assistant Head of West Sussex Music, said: “I’m enormously grateful to our funders whose support has enabled the continuation of Orchestras Inc. at two locations. We really see the benefits for children and young people coming to join us with Orchestras Inc, they grow enormously in confidence and the joy that many experience in playing instruments is a wonderful thing to be part of.”
Later in the spring there will be further opportunities to join our Horsham Orchestras Inc. at Horsham Music Centre, based at Millais School in Horsham. The dates for Horsham are:
- Saturday 7 March
- Saturday 14 March
- Saturday 21 March
Orchestras Inc. is supported through funding by the Chalk Cliff Trust, Horsham District Council and Worthing Borough Council.
