Samba Percussion Experience Workshops

2011-06-01T02:54:00.000-07:00

Classes have been involved in the Samba Experience Percussion Workshops with Tom Harding. The students practised the various rhythms with a combination of body movement and body percussion at first. This was then transferred to performances on the four different instruments played in the workshop .... the surdo drums, agogo bells, tambourim and the ganza. Students performed on all four instruments through a rotation basis. Students were suitably entertained by Tom with his amusing anecdotes. They also enjoyed a rendition by Tom on the ukelele at the end of the workshops. Positive recommendation is that a number of students have asked could Tom run workshops again next year!

Flame Awards 2010

2010-10-26T03:08:00.000-07:00

Padstow Park Public School is the
National Winner of the Music Flame Awards 2010.
Run by the Music Council of Australia, the Australian Society for Music Education and Music Play for Life.
Supported by ABC Classic FM and ABC Local Radio.

Winners anounced!
The FLAME Awards reward and recognise Australia’s inspiring school music programs. ABC Classic FM and ABC Local Radio are media partners in the scheme. The Australian Society for Music Education helps set the entry criteria and shortlists the finalists. Philanthropists, Robert and Elizabeth Albert, provide generous support to the Awards.

This year the judges were looking for primary schools using creative ways to improve students’ access to instrumental music education and musical instruments.

2010 NATIONAL WINNER
Padstow Park Public School (NSW) $10,000 cash prize
This diverse program involves all 340 students regardless of age, family background, intellectual or physical ability:
"Picture an ensemble made up of recorders, violins, didges, laptops, African drums and weird and wonderful instruments made from recycled materials and you have a sense of the eclectic and audacious music program created at Padstow Park Primary School. Commendable aspects of the program include the fact that teachers join the kids as fellow learners; older or more capable students teach others; it happens in normal classroom time and outside it, draws on the cultural backgrounds of its students; provides lots of performance opportunities for students and permeates many areas of school life. We were moved by the testimony of teacher, Kay Taylor's colleagues and her principal, who spoke of the transformative power of music at Padstow Park, such as this from teacher, Chris Graham: “ Their self worth increases and they see a different future. To take a child from another life to performing on the stage of the Sydney Opera House is astounding’." Judges’ citation.
