The Marymount Primary Instrumental Music Program is supported by the Marymount College Performing Arts Department. The program provides private tuition in brass and woodwind, drums, guitar, keyboard/piano, voice and strings. Students learn individually or in pairs in the College music rooms. Most lessons are scheduled on a rotating timetable for 30 minutes. Instruments are to be provided privately, and accounts are issued directly to the parent by the respective music teacher.
Students may choose to join the Primary Concert Band as their proficiency develops. The Band meets weekly for rehearsal and is subsidised by the school so there is no charge to families. Short Celebration of Learning concerts are scheduled during the year to give students the opportunity to perform in front of an appreciative audience.
The Marymount Primary Choir is led by our classroom music teacher. The group is open to students in Years 1-6 and meets during a break time once per week. There are performance opportunities at various school events and wider competitions.
Please be in touch with Assistant Principal Bernadette Christensen at the school for further information or detail.
