Music lessons in a variety of instruments are available at the school. Teachers of piano, strings, voice, woodwind and brass come into the school on a weekly basis to instruct the students individually, or in small groups. Lessons are usually half an hour long, and a cost equivalent to private tuition in the community. Each teacher comes to the school on the same week day, but the lesson times change, so that students do not miss the same part of the academic day. The lessons can be especially useful for students undertaking their HSC in Music.
Instruments are able for hire through the school.
Woodwind and brass tuition contribute to the development of the school band. String groups have also formed with a view to the development of a School Orchestra in the future. Learning and Study Skills Macarthur Anglican School takes a unique approach to learning and study skills. Students have the opportunity to learn about their individual learning styles and about learning strategies suited to these styles. Individualised learning and study programs can be designed in consultation with the Independent Learning Resource Co-ordinator.
