Music Education
Discover how North Vista builds musical confidence through a progressive six-year journey that exposes students to diverse instruments, music-making and authentic performance experiences.
Experience. Perform. Appreciate.
Every Vistalite experiences different forms of music, develops musical skills and gains confidence through authentic performance opportunities.
How We Learn Music
Students progress through increasingly varied instrumental experiences across six years, combining practical music-making with opportunities to perform and share.
Key Experiences
P1 Handbells
Primary 1 students begin their musical journey through learning handbells that enable them to build their confidence in music-making and musical skills.
P2 Keyboard
Building on their musical experiences in Primary 1, the students will continue to learn to play the keyboards in Primary 2.
P3 Ukulele
As the students grow in their musicality, the students will be introduced to stringed instruments. Ukulele is an excellent choice which fits the hands of the students and it will be developmentally appropriate for them to learn.
P4 STOMP
Diversity in musical experiences is what the school strives to provide and the upper primary students will experience beat-making through different forms. STOMP provides the foundation as it explores the different forms of percussions instruments, played through a coordinated effort.
P5 & P6 Boomwhackers
The upper primary students will continue their percussion journey through a more structured form of percussions that will emphasize on the musicality through the percussion instruments.
The Boomwhacker programme runs consecutively for 2 years, increasing in difficulty as they reach Primary 6.
Musical Odyssey
The Musical Odyssey is a milestone for the students to experience in partnership with their parents. Parents will be invited and involved in the learning process that their child/ward has undertaken through an authentic classroom learning experience. There will also be a short performance of 1 – 2 songs from the repertoire they have learnt during their music lessons.
