Music

At Harris Junior Academy Carshalton, we are developing children’s understanding of music and providing them with a range of opportunities to learn how to play different instruments.

All children will be given the opportunity to experience a wide variety of high quality learning activities from specialist teachers. Throughout the course of the year children in year 3 learn to play the violin or cello, children in year 4 learn to play the guitar and children in year five learn to play the trumpets or trombones.

All pupils participate in singing assembly each week and have the opportunity to perform throughout the year in front of their peers and parents in the Christmas Carol Services, class assemblies and end of year performance. Year 4, 5 and 6 children can also join our choir who perform at the O2 in the national event called Young Voices.
