Music
At Boynewood State School, all students participate in a comprehensive Classroom Music Program delivered by our Specialist Music Teacher. Students from Prep to Year 6 receive a 40-minute music lesson each week, aligned with the Australian Curriculum.
The Music Program aims to:
Develop students' awareness and appreciation of music.
Encourage creativity, self-expression and confidence.
Foster a positive response to music through active participation.
Develop musical skills and understanding through engaging and enjoyable learning experiences.
Learning takes place through a variety of practical activities where students explore the elements of music, including:
Beat
Rhythm
Pitch
Singing
Movement
Listening and responding
Creating and performing music
Music lessons are designed to be hands-on, enjoyable and engaging. Students have opportunities to sing, move, perform and experiment with a variety of musical instruments and sound-making resources while developing their musical knowledge and skills.
Through participation in Music, students build confidence, creativity, collaboration skills and an appreciation for the role music plays in cultures and communities around the world.
At Boynewood State School, we believe music is an important part of a well-rounded education and provides students with opportunities to express themselves, develop new skills and experience success in a creative learning environment.
