We are excited to announce that our renewed Instrumental Music Program launched in Term 2, 2024!
Mt Maria College Petrie has partnered with Majenta Music to offer a comprehensive Instrumental Music Program. The Program is designed to grow the performing arts and cultural sphere of the College through performances and events.
Benefits of Instrumental Music
Engaging in instrumental music tuition has been shown in numerous studies to be highly beneficial for students. Learning an instrument not only leads to lasting positive cognitive changes but also enhances memory, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills through discipline and practice.
Music education fosters creativity and emotional expression, allowing students to convey feelings and thoughts through music. Furthermore, it boosts self-esteem and confidence through performance, contributing to the well-rounded development of students both intellectually and emotionally.

About the Instrumental Music Program at Mt Maria College Petrie
Majenta Music provides experienced Instrumental Specialists for lessons and will work collaboratively with Mt Maria College Petrie to enhance the overall development and music education of the students.
All Instrumental Music students engage in one private/group lesson per week.
Students who learn a band or orchestral instrumental will also engage in weekly ensemble rehearsals once they’ve reached the suitable level, as determined by the Specialists. These ensemble experiences foster teamwork, communication, and musical expression, contributing to their holistic musical education.
All Instrumental Music students will have opportunities to perform for a wider audience at school community events.
