Music in the Senior Years

Years 9 and 10 Elective Music students successfully completed their performance recitals and should be very proud of their achievements. Stage 4 Music students have completed their written aural task and have now moved their focus to learning the keyboard for their performance assessment early in Term 4. Year 12IB have submitted their EMIC portfolios and are completing their other portfolios by the end of Term 3. 

Wicked!

Elective Music students will be attending the evening performance of Wicked on Wednesday 20 September at the Lyric Theatre. This is a valuable immersive opportunity for our learners, enriching them towards a diverse appreciation of musical styles, building strong analytical frameworks while strategically supporting the topic of Theatre Music studied in Year 9 Elective Music.
