Music

I am absolutely blown away by the knowledge and rhythm skills of our students. What an incredible term of learning in the music room. Well done, St Marys!

Over the last few terms we have been doing deep dives into the main musical elements. So far we have covered pitch, timbre and rhythm. I can see improvements across our whole school as those musical elements are culminating into a significant increase in our musicality. If you were at Mass on Wednesday, did you notice the fantastic singing? I sure did!

In this last week of term, some of our classes reflected on the impact learning music has on our brain. It was just the tip of the iceberg but we learnt that research has discovered significant structural and functional differences in the brains of musicians.
