Clayfield Music
Clayfield College has a long history in outstanding Music Education from the foundations of Pre-Prep all the way through to Year 12.
We value music education as it not only provides students with a creative outlet and musical development, but has been proven scientifically to improve brain development, brain neuroplasticity, literacy and numeracy patterns as well as assisting with muscle and fine motor skills.
The College’s music education is based upon the Kodály Methodology, established by Hungarian composer Zoltan Kodály and the philosophy that music is a right and should be accessible to everyone.
Clayfield College has an exciting instrumental and vocal co-curricular music program and we would encourage your daughter/son to be involved in the many activities we provide. More than a third of the students at Clayfield College are involved in the Co-Curricular Music Program.
Clayfield music has a large range of choirs, bands and string ensembles they can join along with a Private Tuition Program.
The Private Tuition Program is open to all students - beginner through to advanced levels. We offer lessons for
orchestral strings and piano (from Year 2 upwards); woodwind, brass and percussion (from Year 5 upwards); and voice
(from Year 6 upwards).
Placement in an Instrumental Ensemble is by audition. Auditions are held to determine placement in an ensemble that suits your daughter/son’s level of experience and musical interests. For new students, please contact Ms Tobin, Director of Co-Curricular Music or Mr Tim Opstelten, Co-ordinator of Bands to organise an audition.
Clayfield Music looks forward to another rewarding and busy year. We hope that your daughter/son chooses to be involved in the College’s various musical opportunities including lessons, concerts, competitions, combined workshops, CD recordings and international tours.
