'My heart, O God, is steadfast, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music.' Psalm 57:7

At St Joseph's we teach the Music National Curriculum objectives through a variety of engaging units, some focusing on rhythm work, others on composition and melodic work. In addition, all key stage 2 classes spend at least a term working on learning to play and perform with care and control on a specific instrument, whilst learning to follow some form of music notation. The instruments studied in each year group are listed below:

Year 3: Recorder

Year 4: Ukulele

Year 5: Violin

Year 6: Violin and Samba
