We offer a music-based performing arts program at Karingal Primary School.
The children learn to sing, play classroom instruments, move and dance to music, improvise, and compose.
We provide a sequential program that is tailored to be developmentally appropriate for each year level, based on the Orff approach and Kodaly methods. Our focus is for our students to learn basic musical skills and be musically literate. We aim to introduce them to a breadth of fun, hands-on musical experiences and performance skills that they can confidently develop as they get older.

In Term 3, the whole school performs in our annual school performance at Frankston Arts Centre. This performance includes class dances for each grade, a choir and whole school song, and a dramatic storyline led by the Grade 6 students.
We run a lunchtime Glee Club “The Parrwangs” for children from grades 3 – 6 who love to sing, dance, play, and perform. They perform at assembly, in our concert and, this year, performed in the Mornington Peninsula Choral Festival.
We offer individual private lessons in guitar and keyboards through the Primary Music Institute.
