Darnum Primary School

At Darnum Primary School, students learn to play a variety of instruments including keyboards, electric guitars, drums, bass guitars and so much more. We have free guitar group lessons for beginners and intermediates at lunch times, a scheduled class time for a senior rock band and we also have a djembe drumming group for students in grade four. Junior students learn to play a variety of percussive instruments and ukuleles and we incorporate some singing, dancing and drama into our classes. Students learn how to read and write music notes and are taught how to compose their own pieces. We also use a program called Sound Trap for grades 3-6 to compose some professional sounding music. We have whole school productions and a music concert every alternate year. Overall, Darnum Primary School fosters a life-long love for music.
