English Primary

Music

Children are taught music twice a week from Year One to Year Six. The emphasis is on learning through enjoyment. The programme is a balance of listening, performing and composing and aims to develop a firm grasp of the concepts of music: Rhythm, Pitch, Harmony and Dynamics. The classes are well equipped with many percussion instruments, including a full set of Orff tuned percussion and music-related games. Recorder is introduced in Year Two. In Year Three students are invited to join the Music Extra Curricular Activities: Choir, Orchestra, Recorder Ensemble.

Performance opportunities are given to all children in the form of class concerts, assembly class performances, soloist concerts, Spring Concert and Christmas Concert.
