Music
Our aim is to make sure that every child at Parkside has a variety of musical experiences and leaves our school with an enthusiasm and love of music and the arts.
We encourage creativity within Music lessons. Children have opportunities to compose their own music, collaboratively or independently, using instruments and their voices. We believe that music should help children to develop the skills to work together harmoniously.
As part of the Music provision at Parkside, children attend a weekly whole school singing assembly. In addition, professional music teachers provide tuition in Year 3 (recorders), Year 4 (trumpet) and Year 5 and 6 (guitar).
We would like children to grow into confident performers. At Parkside, they have opportunities to share their skills in concerts, productions and other performances throughout each school year.
