MUSIC at VPJS

At Victoria Park Junior School, we are all MUSICIANS.

Music is a universal language that embodies one of the highest forms of creativity. A high quality music education should engage and inspire children to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement.

At Victoria Park Junior School children are given the opportunity to perform, listen to, review and evaluate music across a range of historical periods, genres, styles and traditions, including the works of the great composers and musicians.

They will learn to sing and to use their voices, to create and compose music on their own and with others and have the opportunity to learn a musical instrument.

Also, they will begin to understand and explore how music is created, produced and communicated, including through the inter-related dimensions: pitch, duration, dynamics, tempo, timbre, texture, structure and appropriate musical notations.
