The Music course in the Middle School is an educational experience that builds skills of musical literacy and understanding as well as providing foundational knowledge required to progress into the Year 10 course. Through the study of a wide range of music repertoire – from rock, jazz and musical theatre to classical – the Music course aims to introduce students to all facets of music through Performing, Composing and Musicology (listening to, analysing and evaluating music repertoire). Upon completion of the Middle Years Music course, we hope that students have gained an understanding and enjoyment of music and see it as an intrinsic part of their life, both at school and in life beyond graduation.
The Year 7 Music course focuses on building and developing music literacy skills and understanding through experiences of performing and composing.
