Music
Statement of Intent
Statement of IntentAt Parkdale, our Music Curriculum aims to provide engaging opportunities for children to develop of love for music and become confident and creative musicians. Through Music, our children can explore their creativity, increase their self-confidence and also develop a sense of achievement when they have produced their very own music!
Performing Arts Classes
If your child is interested in the performing arts - musical theatre and drama to film and TV making, then they may be interested in some Saturday morning classes taking place at Bluecoat Trent Academy. Further details can be found on the attached flyer.
