term 3 music

clubs in action

in the Junior School

Music lessons were jampacked with hands-on fun in Term 3 and the girls loved them!

Our youngest students in Years 0 and 1 are working on the fundamentals of music which includes finding their singing voices. The girls wouldn’t realise it but they are, in fact, learning music literacy through highly tailored singing activities and games every lesson. At Year 2, girls continue to build their vocal skills with classroom singing and also start to learn the recorder.

Girls in Years 3 and 4 are learning about the instruments of the orchestra. Through guidance and practise they are developing their ukulele, piano and recorder skills. Our

Year 5 students are working hard to consolidate their instrument skills for performances and our Year 6 students are working hard on their clarinet and saxophone instruments with a view to joining some senior band ensembles. This prepares them to step up to Year 7 next year, so they’ll feel better prepared to be a part of the Senior School’s co-curricular music programme.

Introducing The Tartan Angels

The Tartan Angels is a new choir for Years 1 and 2 students and is proving very popular with the girls! Our youngest girls enjoy visiting the Performing Arts building where they take their lunch with some of our older students from Years 9–11. After lunch they join Ms Jennifer Maybee who teaches them to explore their voices through fun songs, packed with action. Our Senior School students accompany them on the piano and also help lead the singing. We are really grateful for their support and know that their Littlest Sisters look up to them!
