Let's Plan! Preparing your end of year Primary School Music Concert
Let's Plan! Preparing your end of year Primary School Music Concert
Our Professional Development workshops give you the confidence and tools to deliver music lessons in the classroom. Covering basic elements from the F-10 music curriculum, you will develop skills, ideas, and activities for immediate use. All events are designed for both generalist classroom teachers and music specialists.
All workshops are curriculum aligned to the relevant State music syllabus and aligned to AITSL Professional Standards for Teachers. Musica Viva Australia is a NESA-recommended provider because we currently run programs that are NESA-accredited.
Explore creative and thoughtful approaches to shaping your concert events, engaging your school community, and balancing rehearsal demands with classroom priorities. This workshop will inspire fresh ideas and leave you equipped to create a rewarding, smoothly executed end-of-year celebration
AT THIS WORKSHOP YOU WILL:
- Engage in hands-on activities that you can start in your classroom and expand into polished performances
-
Discover practical, music-driven strategies that ensure quality learning while preparing for your concert or assembly
-
Learn manageable planning techniques that reduce stress and keep rehearsals efficient.
-
Investigate the use of cross-curricular content to manage competing curricular needs
-
Explore ways to involve and energise your whole school community around the concert
WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
These events are designed for both generalist classroom teachers and music specialists.
While our resources and PD are primarily aimed at Primary School teachers, all are welcome, including:
- primary school teachers
- pre-service teachers
- school leaders with an interest in music education for primary school students
"Every year, Musica Viva provides an opportunity to engage in planned and carefully constructed Creative Arts learning (music dance and drama). As a solo Creative Arts teacher, Musica Viva provides an opportunity for me to collaborate with engaging material where otherwise I would be on my own to plan."
