The school year begins with curiosity. Our youngest students enjoy the music classes by experimenting with sounds: tapping, shaking, listening, and exploring the musical possibilities of their own voices and simple instruments. Through these playful experiences, they gradually begin to understand essential musical concepts such as pulse, silence, pause, fast and slow. Day by day, music becomes a language through which they learn to listen, express themselves, and connect with others.
As the months go by, these small learnings grow into meaningful shared moments. The preparation of special events such as the Christmas concert, the Grandparents performance, or the end-of-year show. We also dedicate special moments to celebrate the Day of Peace, Music Week (Saint Cecilia), and to remember Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat, the founder of our school, as well as the Virgin of Mater.
Furthermore, when our students reach the primary stage, they can enjoy extracurricular music lessons, where learning is focused on the instrument of their choice, such as piano, guitar, singing, and others.
At Sagrat Cor Sarrià, music is much more than rhythm and melody. It is understood as a space where children enjoy learning together, where they feel part of their class group, and where they share their achievements with their families. Through music we also nurture the values of our school: respect, kindness, love, responsibility, empathy, and solidarity.
In conclusion, in every rehearsal, every song, and every quiet listening moment, helps to internalize essential routines for this stage of childhood: learning to wait, to listen calmly, and to care for the positive atmosphere in the classroom. So, between songs and smiles, our students take their first musical steps while growing as thoughtful, joyful, and caring members of our community.
