Term 1, 2017 is coming to a close and we hope you have all had a fantastic term of music and development. In Term 1, children settled into classes, became familiar with new faces and began to make friends. We now look forward to the exciting Term 2 program where children will build on the foundations set in Term 1, consolidate new skills and continue to have fun with music and movement. READ MORE ABOUT THE UPCOMING TERM 2 PROGRAM.

Our 3-4 year olds and 4-5 year olds now have an exciting opportunity to add their completed sticker page from their books to their own milestones poster so they can be reminded at home just how far they have come. Posters are available for $10. Some teachers will have them available in classes, otherwise they can be purchased online and sent to you for an additional $10 p&h. VISIT THE SHOP HERE

The Power of Music

The Power of Music

- How can we send children the message that singing is for everyone?-

In this great article submitted by Emma Hart, Mini Maestros' Head of Teaching, Steven M. Demorest - Professor of Music Education, Northwestern University, talks about a Hungarian film titled “Sing” that recently won the Oscar for best short film. “Sing” tells the story of young Zsófi, and her anguish after being told by her choir instructor to only mouth the words. Professor Demorest goes on to talk about the importance of singing and the powerful influence you can have on your child when it comes to singing. He also offers tips for encouraging your child to sing more at home.

A beautiful reminder for our Williamstown teacher Michelle Maglitto of how much we can influence the musical journey of our young people. Otto recently visited Michelle's studio and his mum said, "Otto loved coming to Mini Maestros all those years. It was a huge part of his personal and musical development, and he mentions his classes every time he sees a bumblebee! He wanted to come in especially to tell you how excited he is about learning to play the guitar. He loved rocking out and playing a few bars of the first song he is learning – AC/DC's TNT! Your energy has stayed with him since he started Mini Maestros."
