07.01.2022 MINDS ON MUSIC Happy Monday folks! Research by neuroscientist Nina Kraus displays some of the strongest research to-date proving how music changes the brains of children who are most at risk. Learning to play a musical instrument or to sing can help disadvantaged children strengthen their reading and language skills by improving the way their nervous systems process sounds in a busy environment, such as a classroom. The boost to the neural function can lead to improved memory and longer attention spans, which help children focus better in school and improve communication skills! #repost #kindermusik #research #music #mood #childrensmusic #education

03.01.2022 *BLOWS TRUMPET* Introducing our newest 'Brass Band Program' at Richmond West Primary School, in partnership with Poly Global. This music program provides equal opportunity to children from lower socio-economic backgrounds, giving them access to FREE musical tuition & instruments! After months of managing the challenges of remote learning - it was heartwarming to see the excitement on students’ faces when their new musical instruments arrived. It’s programs like these... that genuinely provide students the tools and resources to help them thrive. The social connections between students in the band help build a strong foundation for positive mental health and wellbeing. . . . : Special thanks to Poly Global.
