“Music reflects the culture and society we live in, and so the teaching and learning of music enables children to better understand the world we live in. Besides being a creative and enjoyable activity, music can also be a highly academic and demanding subject. It also plays an important part in helping children feel part of the community. We provide at Sinai, opportunities for all children to create, play perform and enjoy music.”
At Sinai, we aim to provide every childr with enriching opportunities to explore, create, play, perform and appreciate a diverse range of musical styles. As stated in the national curriculum, “Music is a universal language which embodies one of the highest forms of creativity.”
We empower our children to engage with music through hands-on experiences enabling them to play a variety of musical instruments and come together in harmonious chorale singing, both within the secular and Jewish studies classroom and beyond. By seamlessly integrating music into our curriculum and school day, we help our students recognise the intrinsic value of the musical arts, fostering an appreciation that extends beyond the confines of the music classroom.
Our aim is to kindle a lifelong love of music within each child, exposing them to a tapestry of musical experiences that ignite a genuine passion for the art form. Music serves as a vehicle for collaborative group activities, allowing students to cooperate, communicate, share ideas, engage in self-reflection and build self-confidence.
We firmly believe that as our students journey through Sinai, they will not only acquire the means to express their ideas and emotions through the language of sound but will also cultivate a deep and enduring love for music. Our commitment is to nurture the musical talents and passions of our students, fostering a lifelong appreciation for the profound impact of music on their lives.
