Music

Music plays a very important role in the lives of our young students at St John's.

Experiencing the many facets of music, benefits children in many ways:

  • Increases concentration, self discipline, self esteem and team work.
  • Enriches and extends a pupil's learning experience in school.
  • Makes pupils' more positive about music and music education.
  • Results in a lifelong interest in music

We place a great importance in the development of music at St John's.

Children in St John's experience music in many ways. Some examples include:

- Singing songs from their Religious programme.

- Performing topical, religious and action songs at assembly each week.

- Preparing music and songs for our Sacramental celebrations

- Performing at our Musical performances in CRAIC Theatre.

- Weekly specialised music and tin whistle classes. 

- Christmas Nativity performances in St Columcille's Church.
