Extra-Curricular Activities

All classes have been progressing well in their Term 1 Creative Arts (Music, Dance and Drama) program with a focus on music concepts and performance.

Below is the studied concept accompanied by the anticipated performance of each grade.

  • Kindergarten: ‘Everything Bears’ with rhythm focus.
  • Year 1: ‘Chicken Licken’ with Tempo focus.
  • Year 2: ‘The Gingerbread Man’ with Pitch focus.
  • Year 3: ‘Early Jazz Style’ with Rhythm focus.
  • Year 4: ‘Later Jazz Style’ with Tempo focus.
  • Seniors A and B: ‘The History of Rock with all concepts studied.

All Creative Arts lessons are based on the Creative Arts K-6 Syllabus (NESA) which involves aural, written, history, analysis and composition activities. Assessments are not based on instrumental performance alone.

 

Finally, our CAPA group are rehearsing every Friday lunchtime and we look forward to their performance of ‘Aladdin Trouble’ soon.
