Founded in 2011, the Waltons RTÉ lyric fm Music for Schools Competition is a non-profit national event celebrating and supporting music in Irish schools.
The Competition is open to all primary and post-primary schools, as well as special schools, in the Republic of Ireland, and hundreds of schools from all 26 counties have participated in previous years.
The Competition’s objective is to promote the enormous benefits of creative music making for young people. Its open nature offers schools the opportunity to think and work creatively in any genre (or genres) of music and with any combination of students, developing an original musical project that has learning potential at every stage of the process.
