Musical Activities

There is an extensive programme of extra curricular activities in the Music Department.  These activities are the basis of the Christmas and Spring Concerts.

The school has 3 choirs - Senior Choir, S3/4 Girls’ Choir and Junior Choir.  These choirs are open to all pupils in the appropriate year group.  There are no entry auditions.

There are also several instrumental groups including the Brass Band, String Group, Guitar Group, Orchestra, Percussion Group, Wind Band.  These groups are open to all pupils with the appropriate playing skills, whether or not they have tuition in school from one of the school’s instrumental instructors.

Complete details of how to join, rehearsal days and times, etc., for each choir or group are displayed on the Music Department noticeboard.

Pupils and parents are welcome to consult any member of staff in the Music Department about musical activities and opportunities available at Knox Academy, within East Lothian and also Nationally.
