Intent for Music

At Newtown, we aim to inspire every child to be a musician. Throughout their music journey, the children will be composers and performers as they sing and play a range of instruments in solo and ensemble contexts as well as being able to use and understand musical notation. Our children will experience and appraise live and recorded performances of diverse music from across history, other cultures and from great composers. It is our aim to develop a love of music and the confidence to be a super star!

As musicians children will develop their knowledge and skills in the areas of performing, composing, transcribing and describing music. In each phase, the children will have the opportunity to learn a new instrument.
