All Crestians will be taught 3 musical instruments; Keyboard and Guitar (individual musical instrument) at Secondary One and Xylophone (ensemble performance) at Secondary One. The learning of each musical instrument spans across a semester and comprises at least 15 hours of music lessons taught by our own Music Teachers.
To promote experiential learning, joy of learning and self-discovery, Crestians are also given the opportunity to explore different aspects of music through the Secondary 1 Aesthetic Workshops.
