Hi, I’m Ms Gaunt (*not my real guitar).
Thanks for visiting the Music at Success Primary School website!
What do we do here? Students from Year 1 to 6 attend weekly music classes. These lessons include moving, singing, playing a range of instruments, listening, reading, writing and creating Music.
What else? Extra-curricular Music activities are available to selected students. These groups include Senior Choir (Years 4 – 6), and the Atwell Area Concert Band.
The Instrumental Music School Services program runs within the school. This Government program provides a select group of Year 5 and 6 students with instrumental lessons within school time (at present we offer Trumpet, Trombone, Clarinet and Flute).
Anything more? All students are encouraged to broaden their horizons and experience Music incursions. In the past we have welcomed jazz band Adam Hall and the VPs, OperaWA and the local area concert band into our school. We also participate in Music: Count Us In each year – an event where students participate in a whole-school music-making performance.
But why??? All students are encouraged to involve themselves with Music to the best of their ability. Music makes so many contributions to kids’ development; it assists their academic achievement and social/emotional wellbeing, it enhances brain function, memory, concentration and ability to express feelings. And it’s fun!
Contact: If you have something you could share or questions about the Music program at Success, please don’t hesitate to contact me at Jennifer.Gaunt@education.wa.edu.au
Right now we’re also doing this, so check it out: National Songwriting Competition
And, finally, this:
Hey it’s grace here um I’m home schooled now and I’m in year 6 🎶👋🏼
Hi Grace, it’s good to hear from you! Are you still singing?
I miss u❤️
cool
Hi Miss Gaunt! I really miss you, it’s been a long time! I just want to ask you if I could have any access to the song ‘The Future is Ours’. We used it for our 2014 graduation song. I tried it on YouTube, but it didn’t work. Is there any way of accessing to the song ‘The Future is Ours’? If you can’t search it up on YouTube, then can you tell me if there is a special link or something, and if so, I would appreciate it if you could help me access the website (if it is a website, that is) to your maximum reach.
Thanks, Ian Lee
Hi Ian, it’s great to hear from you! You can hear the choir sing the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhjV1ybVidM
IT IS SO cool Awessome
Hi Ian, nice to hear from you! The Future Is Ours was written by West Australian composer Donna Marwick-O’Brien. It’s in her book titled Something Extra Special. Unfortunately the audio itself is not easily accessible online unless you wanted to purchase the book, which can be found on a number of websites. I hope that helps!
Ms Gaunt yesterday I searched up song for John or was it Jon I have no idea so can you please tell me 🙂 (puppy eyes)
Hi Michael, Song For John isn’t available online, it’s only on the CD 🙂

Hi Miss Gaunt
I was just wondering when is the next performance week besides for this week because I want to play a song on my recorder but I’m at INTERSCHOOL for my music day?
Hi Tahliya,
There will be a performance week at the end of each term. Sorry you are missing this one! Perhaps you could come at another time this week and perform it for another class? If you ask your teacher then I would be happy for you to do that at a time that suits your class.
Ok Miss Gaunt thanks
Hi Miss Gaunt
I was just wandering when the next performance week is besides for this week??
