We run 30-minute, weekly, interactive bilingual music classes for preschoolers, babies, and their whānau to learn and grow together.
Five different venues across Ōtautahi/Christchurch – scroll down for more info on the venues.
Theme for Term 2 – Ngā Tohu o Tāwhirimātea | Weather
Our classes run to the same format, with the same waiata, each week, for the whole term.
Our whakaaro/reason for this is simple… tamariki learn through repetition, and we believe the consistency in keeping to the same music set each term, helps both child and caregiver to learn the kupu/words and actions for the waiata.
We believe it helps to solidify the reo/language that is being introduced, too – which is always beautiful to hear being sung back to us, by the tamariki!
