Band Program

It's time to join the school band!!!

RGLPS has a long history of engaging students in music performance via our award-winning Concert band program.

This unique opportunity to play a musical instrument, learn to read music and follow a conductor in a large band, namely the Concert band is popular within schools and allows large numbers of students to participate, have fun, and gain a variety of skills.

RGLPS Concert band instruments may include Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, Percussion and Electric bass.

Students experience the joy of performing music with additional benefits such as appreciation of teamwork, self-discipline, collaboration, a sense of belonging, community and making friends.

RGLPS’s program consists of Senior, Intermediate and Junior bands, each of which rehearse one morning per week before school at 7.30am. The 2026 Junior Band rehearses on Thursdays and small group instrument tutorials occur during the school day on various days.

Come along to the Junior Band Information session in the Performing Arts Hall on Wednesday 4th March at 6.30 – 7.30pm and see up close RGLPS band students perform and show you and your child the many instruments on offer. If you are unable to attend the information session, you are welcome to make an appointment to speak with Michael Rochford at another time.
