 For 2009, our music program has grown from three to four days per week. Mr Olofsson and Ms Armstrong each commit two full days per week to coordinate the Wilkins music program. Our music coordinators are assisted by fellow teachers, many volunteer parents, executive, private tutors and many willing students to maintain our joy, enthusiasm and high aspirations for our music program. What’s happening in 2009?The music program for 2009 includes: - Choral Program – including a Junior Choir, Senior Choir and whole-school singing
- Band Program – including a Concert Band and Training Band
- Recorder Program – which includes a Recorder Ensemble (for experienced players) as well as the recorder classes offered to all children in Years 2 and 3
- String Program – a String Ensemble (for experienced players) and Beginner Strings (lead by Miss Alex Pym)
- Percussion classes – offered to all Year 1 students

- Wilkins PS also has private tutors that come to the school to teach. Instruments can also be hired from the School on a term-by-term basis.
