STUDENTS OF 2021

SONGWRITING COMPETITION

Even though 2021 didn’t go exactly to plan, our students continue to value musical education and express themselves through practising music.

Each year, the students of Music Lessons Academy are invited to put pen to paper and enter their original song for a chance to win a share of up to $2000 of prizes. All students are encouraged to take on the opportunity to explore their creativity, compose an original song and become published composers.

“We want students to unleash their creativity and engage with learning in a fun way. Music teaches more than how to play, it also teaches positive self expression, discipline and develops creative thinking skills”
