Music & Movement

Music & Movement Classes run on Fridays

The Music & Movement Experience for Children

Integrated Approach: The program focuses on fostering children’s auditory, visual and physical responses to music, cultivating multitasking skills crucial for instrumental playing.

Engaging Learning: Through listening, singing and expressive movement, children explore rhythm and discover the wonders of sound using age-appropriate instruments.

Playful Experience: Classes are designed to be play-based and experiential, laying the foundation for a child’s innate understanding of music. This approach precedes the more task-oriented nature of instrumental learning.

Comprehensive Development: The program aims to provide a solid platform for a child’s comprehensive development, recognising the importance of well-rounded growth.

Endorsement: The program’s integrity is acknowledged by numerous families, including professional musicians, who have consistently enrolled their children over the years.

These joyful, playful and expressive Music and Movement classes for children have a proud history of successfully running since 1982 at the North Sydney Community Centre.

Age-Specific Class Bookings

Please ensure you book your child into the appropriate class for their age:

For children aged 2.5 to 3 years: Please book the 9:30 to 10:00am class.
For children aged 3 to 4 years: Please book the 10:15 to 11:00am class.
For children aged 4 to 5 years: Please book the 11:15am to 12:00pm class.

This helps Simona tailor each class to the right age group.
