Music

Music is the study and performance of sound.

Our Music subject leads are Mrs Spiby-Wilson and Mrs Toomey.  

Mrs Spiby-Wilson says:

"Who doesn't love music?! Music is all around, all of the time: on TV, on the radio, in the shops, at Christmas, at festivals, at concerts... the list could go on and on. Music is a real passion of mine as I believe it gives us an outlet for our emotions, and can change a mood in an instant. I have personally been to a variety of different music concerts and festivals and have even tried to learn a number of instruments such as guitar, violin, piano and the recorder! Music can also help us improve in maths and reading without us even noticing and can build up our tolerance and patience across all other aspects of our learning. Music really is a super power and can be harnessed by anyone! 

I'll sign off with a simple quote by Beethoven,

"Music can change the world."

Some examples of music at Owston Park Primary: 

At Owston Park, we LOVE music - from as early as independent EYFS music provision - to KS1 performing in the music room - to a KS2 spectacle at Young Voices! 

Each week every class participates in Music Monday. This gives our children opportunities to listen to a different genre of Music each week from across different time periods. The children are able to listen, analyse, reflect and discuss the pieces of music developing their understanding and musical vocabulary. Here are some of the genres we will cover across the year.

Jazz, Blues, Reggae, Rock, Rock n Roll, Musicals, Movie, Bollywood, 2000's, Country, Pop, Heavy Metal, SKA, Disney, R&B and many more.....

If your child is insterested in music and wishes to do more music outside of school there are many centres and clubs that can help you.

Doncaster Music Hub provides a regually updated list of available bands, music teachers, centres and hubs that would be more than happy to help your children progress in the areas they find most engaging.
