Join us for weekly music classes designed for 2.5 – 5-year-olds, expertly led and based on well-founded music education principles – at ACO Pier 2/3 in Sydney's Walsh Bay Arts Precinct.
Children will be introduced to musical concepts through singing, playing, and moving, and will develop their creativity and expression through improvisation and dramatisation activities. Led by our highly experienced early years music educator, classes will use a combination of Dalcroze, Kodaly and Orff teaching methods and activities, tailored specifically for the age and developmental stage of the children. Class sizes are kept intentionally small, and children will progress at their own pace.
Most importantly, ACO Music & Movement classes are fun and will ignite in children what will hopefully be a life-long love of music. Focus is on unconscious learning so that children are not inhibited by set musical ideas – allowing them to become creative musical thinkers before going on to more formal instrumental education.
Research has shown that participating in music learning from a young age can improve a child’s physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development. We look forward to welcoming your family to Pier 2/3 to experience the life-changing impact of music.
Prices start at $200 for a term.
