Mad Hatter Music is a music school located in Springwood and Birkdale, Qld.

The learning environment we have created at Mad Hatter Music School is designed to build confidence, self-esteem, and show children that their learning potential is limitless. We may set the stage for them, but they are the true conductors for how far they take their passion, learnings, and talent. Although our title may have the word school in it, it’s our students at Mad Hatter that make it feel more like a family.
