In our class music sessions, children do lots of singing and movement and enjoy learning songs for whole school assemblies.
Children experiment with a variety of instruments including electric keyboards, electric drums, ukuleles, guitars, boom whackers and a variety of non-tuned percussion instruments. Children start to learn the ukulele and basic keyboard skills as well as basic theory, from which they can springboard into extra lessons if they wish. Visiting tutors offer guitar, piano, vocal and drum lessons.
Every second year we combine with four local schools for camp, which culminates in a performance at all four schools. Highlights have included performances in 2000 for the Queen, and in 2015 for the 150-year celebration of Busselton Jetty, we sang our own ‘Jetty Song’ which is now played in their Underwater Observatory.
