Class Music
As part of Haberfield Public School's holistic approach to every child's education all students receive ongoing and sequential Music Education lessons from Kindergarten to Year 6. Research shows how learning music can help your child in so many ways including:
Improved reasoning capacity and problem solving skills
Improved maths and language performance
Greater memory capacity
Greater social and team skills
In class music at Haberfield PS students develop skills in singing, movement/dance, instrumental work and music composition. The Music Education program also links with drama and introduces senior students to the use of technology in music.
As part of the Music Education program at Haberfield Public School all students in Years 1 to 6 learn the recorder.
Due to health risks involved in sharing recorders we ask all students to have their own recorder. Quality Yamaha Recorders can be purchased from the school office for $10.00. Students can if they wish also purchase the recorder tutor for $15.00. The tutor has a CD, which students can practice with.
