Summary HAWI Rocks is a Saturday School focused on creating pop and rock bands with young people in Merton from Years 5 - 10. Having successfully run for two years, we currently have approximately 30 students enrolled. You would form part of a small team of tutors (Drums, Keyboards, Vocals and Guitar), who will be responsible for providing high-quality instrumental instruction, developing students’ confidence and performance skills and bringing out great group performances from a diverse range of students. The sessions would revolve around learning, rehearsing and performing a range of modern pop and rock repertoire. Lead sheets, tabs and other relevant music will be designed and provided by the HAWI Rocks lead tutor, but you may be asked for advice on the parts written for your specialist instrument. Every 10-week term, we introduce and learn five new songs. We work towards an end-of-term performance, which is a showcase of everything the students have worked on in their sessions. As well as these concerts, we have many regular performances across the year, such as Christmas and Summer Arts Festival concerts with the Harris Academy Wimbledon Music Department, as well partnership concerts with other schools, such as the Kings College Wimbledon Arts Festival and Wimbledon High School Battle of the Bands
