Music
This course is part of a progressive programme from Year 9 to Year 13 and forms the basis for the NCEA Level 1 music course MUP101.
The content will be derived from the NZ Music Curriculum and will be matched to the new NCEA standard that commence in 2023:
· Perform music
- Create original music and demonstrate understanding of elements of music
· Understanding Music in Context (including Maori Music)
The practically based course aims to encourage tolerance and understanding of a wide range of musical styles through individual and group performance (both vocal and instrumental), and to equip the students to create and compose their own music.
