Music

Artistic Expression

Music is an extraordinary subject which helps to mould learners into well-rounded young adults. Not only does it provide a creative outlet for them, but it also teaches them the value of discipline and hard work.

Making Music Together

In performance, the social aspect of Music is key, and students learn the importance of team work in conjunction with individual input. Performing in groups with fellow students, and experiencing the social interaction which accompanies this are factors which persuade most learners to study Music. The desire to master a wonderful art form is also a strong motivator.
