That is a question we are asked many times. Click the links below to find out the benefits of choosing a Performing Arts Subject in school even if you have no plans to make a career in the Arts. There is also information about courses and careers if you are thinking about studying Music, Drama or Music Technology beyond school.
Please come and speak to a member of staff if you have any questions.
Welcome back and I hope you all had a restful holiday.
We have a busy term ahead with Senior Phase Prelim Exams and SQA Music and Drama ‘real’ Performing Exams and also the N5 and Higher Music Tech folio deadlines to meet.
You all have a copy of your Prelim Timetable now. We will also arrange individual times for the performing prelims. For these you must be able to perform your complete programme with appropriate backing tracks/accompaniment. If your music teacher is playing for you it is your responsibility to ensure they have the accompaniment. A timetable for this will be shared with you week beginning 16th January.
Instrumental lessons begin again this week and copies of the timetables are here on the INSTRUMENTAL TUITION PAGE and also on your Google Classrooms as well as on the dept notice board. Please ensure you check your time and arrive at your lesson on time with instrument and books etc. If for any reason you cannot attend please let your instructor know in advance. It is only polite to do this and they may be able to swap your time with someone else.
Music Groups will start week beginning Monday 30th January (after the Prelims). We will be starting to prepare for our Summer Concert in Term 4. New and old members very welcome.
S1 music are studying The Music of Scotland this term, S2 are studying Showtime, S3 Music are finishing The Voice and then moving to The Music of Scotland and S3 Music Technology are creating a Radio Show.
If you have any questions please pop along to the staff base to see us.
