Festival of Music
Koolunga Primary is proud to be participating in the Festival of Music in 2025.
The Primary Schools Music Festival presents the Festival of Music in South Australia annually and is recognised as a state heritage icon. This choral program has a longstanding tradition that has impacted generations of public school students across South Australia.
It is a highly valued part of the school curriculum here at Koolunga Primary. Students and families are looking forward to taking part this year. It stands at the forefront of arts education in South Australia.
The Festival of Music resonates with Koolunga Primary’s commitment to promote the importance of music and the arts in education along with engaging our school community. It plays a vital role in nurturing young talent, fostering a sense of unity and inclusivity, and preserving and building South Australia’s musical landscape and history.
The positive benefits of maintaining a culture of choir and singing at Koolunga Primary unequivocally fosters the magic of social connection, belonging and teamwork, strengthens body posture, develops lung function, and helps blood pressure (wellbeing), improves literacy skills (excellence and equity, effective learners), along with many more benefits that enable students to thrive and prosper!
The Festival of Music provides our school with a program that connects each of us with our shared humanity.
