Music

Our music program is based on the Orff philosophy, which emphasizes an experiential and movement-based approach.

Music lessons are held weekly in same-age groups, and children also participate in musical activities during daily circle time.

The Kindergarten music lessons follow Manitoba Education Guidelines.

In our music lessons, children:

  • learn the fundamentals of rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, and form
  • experience a wide range of music, from simple folk melodies to classical works
  • make music by singing, dancing, and playing recorders and percussion instruments
  • improvise to create confidence, independence, and enjoyment.
