Music
Music is all around us. It is the soundtrack to our lives. Music connects us through people and places in our ever-changing world. It is creative,collaborative,celebratory and challenging. At Hasland Junior School, music brings pupils together through the shared endeavour of whole-school singing, ensemble playing, experimenting with creative process and,through the love of listening to friends and fellow pupils,performing. At Hasland Junior School,we believe that music can enrich both a child's life and their education.It is an opportunity to both inspire and motivate young people and as such is an essential part of a broad and varied curriculum.
Lesson are taught through the music scheme Charanga, specifically tailored to cover all the key objectives of the National Curriculum. Each unit includes singing,performance,improvisation,composition,using instruments and music appreciation. The choice of songs is varied and covers a range of genres across a number of decades,enabling children to develop an understanding of the history of music. We work in collaboration with Derbyshire Music Partnership to deliver lessons and fulfil wider opportunities.
