Pathfinders Ensemble Membership 2023-24

**Please note new day: Pathfinders is now on TUESDAYS from September 2023**

About Pathfinders

Pathfinders Ensemble is part of our Waltham Forest Satellite Music School and takes place on Tuesdays from 4.15-5.15pm at Chingford C of E Infant site.

This is a new ensemble which is an exciting, creative and explorative group open to young people aged between 8-12 who learn an instrument or have vocal lessons.

At the group we don't follow convention, we will take inspiration from a variety of sources to create new music and sounds in our own way. Each session is a unique experience!

All instruments and vocalists are welcome, we have limited instruments to use at the school so please bring your own instrument if you can.

At the end of term we usually invite family and friends to a sharing session or concert so they can hear our amazing new music!

Fees

The Pathfinders membership fee for the academic year 2023-24 is £36 per term or £18 for families on a low income.

For this fee, young people can join one or more groups run by Waltham Forest Music Service, including Pathfinders in Chingford as well as groups held at our main Music School held at Walthamstow School for Girls.
