Music

A comprehensive music program is in operation in our school. Students in Grades K to 5 are taught general music. Two approaches are incorporated in developing students' musicality in the general music program. The Kodaly approach emphasizes a student's ability to read and write music using hand-signals. The Orff approach uses speech, singing, movement, improvisation and the playing of instruments to encourage creativity and develop music skills in the area of rhythm, melody and harmony. Interested students will have an opportunity to sing in our intermediate choir, which practise during certain noon hours.
