THE CAMBERWELL CHOIR SCHOOL
We are a music project for children and young people aged 0-18, particularly those who would otherwise find it difficult to access positive and constructive group activities, especially high quality music tuition, which can be expensive and hard to find. We meet on Saturdays during term-time and sessions happen at different times depending on age. It costs just -ú1 per child per week.
