Music

Welcome to Music at St. Anne's

Through playing, singing, creating and performing, children will develop their confidence, creative skills, SCORE values and improve their emotional well-being. We will offer wider opportunities which engage and inspire children to develop a life-long love of music. We will celebrate our uniqueness and allow children to express themselves through music and feel part of a community. We will explore different styles and tastes in music. We will promote a respectful appreciation of them all styles.

Our aims of music teaching are to enable children to:

know and understand how sounds are made

know how music is made through a variety of instruments
know how music is composed and written down
know how music is influenced by the time, place and purpose for which it was written
develop the interrelated skills of performing, composing and appreciating music

Music should also be seen as a vehicle for the building of children’s self-esteem, confidence and self-discipline and the enhancement of life skills.

Rock Steady

Many children take part in our Weekly Rock Steady Music lessons. Children learn to play an instrument in their very own band. To take part in these lessons, parents need to book onto them via the website https://www.rocksteadymusicschool.com/.

Each term they hold a concert to showcase all theu have been learning for parents and classes.

The Christmas 2025 concert was a huge success as you can see images on this music page! For images of previous concerts and assemblies, click here.

Rock Kidz

Rock Kidz have provided workshops for our school where children engaged in singing, dancing and rocking out!

Rock out assemblies

Miss Rafferty has introduced weekly rock out assemblies for our whole school. This has had a positive impact on children's mental well-being and it provides a sense of belonging as we sing as a whole school. Children are invited to join Miss Rafferty and teachers in leading the assemblies, with an exciting opportunity to rock out with props and instruments.
