Class Bands 2026

Band is the main way we communicate here at Tribe. 

Each class has its own "band" where your teachers post updates & practice videos, you can ask questions & also comment on any posts shared. 

All Bands are private to each individual class. 

We post all whole school updates in Band as well as individual class announcements- You can also use band to let your teacher know if your child is unwell that particular week for example & there is also a message function that goes directly to your teacher if there is something sensitive you wanted to discuss. Our studio calendar is also linked to the bands so you can make note of all upcoming events! 

All bands are moderated by Tribe Management. 

Global School Band (All Families to Join for whole school reminders & announcements) 

- Wild Child 

- Tribe Junior 

- Tribe Tween 

Tribe Teen/Adult
