Primary Music

Welcome to the Primary Music curriculum

Music is embedded in the Early Years curriculum whereby children are provided with opportunities to sing, listen, move and create music in varied contexts.

We foster language development, listening skills and memory through songs and rhymes.

We also encourage self-expression and emotional regulation through musical play, as well as turn-taking opportunities and confidence whilst performing.
