Music at Del Monte & Mary Bailey House
Music at Del Monte (Curricular)
Let the games begin! In music we are enjoying the Music Olympics as a way of exploring concepts from beat keeping with balls, to races to show the right pitch with our plates on the stave.
Prep have had turns at being conductors, learning to show fast and slow and stop as conductors with a baton, and as the ‘band’ with their percussion instruments.
All Del Monte students performed the mass music for St Dominic’s Day with such heartfelt prayerfulness, having concentrated on learning the music and words in their music classes since last term. We are particularly proud of the Siena and Laudare Singers who led us so capably in the singing from right beside the altar! We now have a few weeks for all students to refine their joyful singing for our Fathers’ Day Mass.

Music at Mary Bailey House (Curricular)
As we continue having fun in Mary Bailey House music classes, students are encouraged to develop their singing, moving and listening skills. With songs such as Green, Green, students are asked to identify the colour of their clothing. They then respond by singing “I’m wearing ___ today, Look at me and you will say”. This develops their confidence, pitch matching and colour recognition.
