Music is a VERY important subject.

• (The most important subject according to Miss Elliot.)

• You learn to create, interpret, discuss, analyse, pontificate, deduce…. and clap in time.

Choosing Music for Year 9 & 10?

• Anyone interested in music and willing to give the subject a try can do well in this course. It just takes practice!

• It is NOT a course for easy marks. It rewards those who work hard and contribute to class discussions. The more students contribute, the more rewarding the course will be.
