Our classroom music programme is based on the NZC and offers students tuition from Year 7 – 10 Junior Music and Year 11 – 13 (NCEA Levels 1, 2, 3).

The programme encompasses the following areas aimed to give students a life-long appreciation for all aspects of music;

  • Creating music
  • Developing ideas in music
  • Communicating and interpreting music through practical performance
  • Appreciating, listening and developing knowledge through understanding music in context

We offer a comprehensive academic programme as well as practical skills in vocals, ukulele, guitar, keyboard and percussion as part of our classroom music programme.
