Music, Dance & Drama
 


The practical application of the Montessori method is based on human tendencies - to explore and share with a team yet retain independence and decision making abilities, to create order and develop self-control and to assimilate abstract ideas from experience and use the creative imagination to perfect one's efforts.

   
Children delight in music, dance and movement … the combination of musical rhythms, exhilarating movements and dance steps bring great joy to their heart and soul. However, music, dance and movement is not seen as merely satisfying the children's artistic expression, it is an important aspect towards understanding the life style, civilisation, culture and custom of the different societies in our world, past and present … thus the programme opens the children's horizon in many aspects by giving them opportunities to expand their explorations into these areas.

 
The basic elements of music are introduced through physical awareness and creative movement … the children embark on personal journeys up the pathway of self-understanding and musical growth. In the course of their expedition, they hone and refine their listening skills, broaden their study of rhythms and tones and reinforce their sentiments on music appreciation and artistic impressions.

The Children soon come to a realization that dance is a joyous and gratifying channel for self-expression.

Whereas the drama programme schools the children in teamwork whilst integrating at the same time skills in reading, writing, memorizing and public speaking.
