EXTRACURRICULAR MUSIC ACTIVITIES IN THE SCHOOL CURRICULUM ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE MUSICALS OF THE FIRST GYMNASIUM IN SPLIT

Slobodno vrijeme jest vrijeme u kojemu je pojedinac oslobođen obveza i koje može oblikovati i ispuniti aktivnostima prema vlastitim željama, interesima i potrebama. Jedan je od načina da učenici kvalitetno iskoriste slobodno vrijeme bavljenje izvannastavnim aktivnostima. Sama važnost izvannastavnih aktivnosti istaknuta je u raznim obrazovnim propisima koji učitelje i nastavnike potiču da od djece stvaraju kreativne, samostalne i samouvjerene pojedince. Široki spektar izvannastavnih aktivnosti pruža djeci mogućnost i slobodu da se tijekom školovanja aktivno bave onim što ih najviše zanima i u čemu će sudjelovati sa zadovoljstvom. Budući da se izvannastavne aktivnosti mogu ostvarivati u svim područjima znanosti i umjetnosti te u sportu, u ovome diplomskom radu usredotočit ćemo se na izvannastavne aktivnosti u području glazbe te unutar toga područja na pripremu i realizaciju školskoga mjuzikla. U radu su opisani glazbeni projekti splitske Prve gimnazije koja više od 25 godina zajedno s partnerskom školom Astor College iz Ujedinjenoga Kraljevstva u sklopu izvannastavnih glazbenih aktivnosti priprema i izvodi mjuzikle.Free time is the time in which an individual is free from obligations and which he can shape and fill with activities according to his own wishes, interests and needs. One way for students to make quality use of their free time is to engage in extracurricular activities. The very importance of extracurricular activities is highlighted in various educational regulations that encourage teachers to create creative, independent and self-confident individuals from children. A wide range of extracurricular activities gives children the opportunity and freedom to actively engage in what they are most interested in and in which they will participate with pleasure during schooling. Since extracurricular activities can be realized in all fields of science and art and in sports, in this thesis we will focus on extracurricular activities in the field of music and within that field on the preparation and realization of school musicals. The paper describes the musical projects of Split's First High School, which has been preparing and performing musicals for more than 25 years together with the partner school „Astor College“ from the United Kingdom as part of extracurricular musical activities
