25.01.2022 Wow! We're over half way through Term 2 already! For those of you with children in their second semester of lessons, there will be progressive assessments taking place over the next three weeks. As all children learn and practice at their own pace, there are graded levels of competency to reflect this. Students have been working well during lesson times to prepare! A great indicator of what they're retained from lessons can be seen when they "teach" in lesson time - her...e's a new student, four lessons in to her first semester "conducting" simplified piano notation (with her own colourful spin on it!!) More to come.. :) Vinnie

25.01.2022 Happy Valentines Day!! Here's some love we all share as parents - as well as the motivation behind my Music School - I just love seeing my kids (and yours) light up with music.. Enjoy your weekend! Vinnie xx

23.01.2022 This week we looked at musical patterns, and how repetition is a vital key in learning, playing and enjoying music - here's a great article on this very topic!

21.01.2022 Ok 4pm Wednesday Guitar Class!! Here's your homework video.. Thanks to Miss T for playing :) #technology #rocks

19.01.2022 Happy Friday! LESSON TIMETABLE UPDATE: 2 Spots left!! Wednesdays is almost booked out - with just one Individual lesson free at 7pm, and ... Yikes.. Thursday is full! I have just one vacancy left - one spot in Group Guitar Class on Thursdays @4.00pm! I will look at running more classes in Term 2 - so if you're interested drop me a message - I'm looking at possibilities (maybe mid morning and afternoon lessons while the kids are at school) all queries welcome! Vinnie :) PS Here's a little youtube clip of me doing what I'll be teaching #sing #play #fortheloveofmusic

17.01.2022 One more week of lessons left this Term! Assessments for second term students have been going well - everyone had a shot at teaching a simple 4 bar piece of notation to their classmates - and did extremely well! #Melody + #Harmony + #Rhythm = #Music

16.01.2022 Day One done and dusted!! Was exhausting, but fun.. Am thinking of renaming 4.45 Vocal Group to Comedy Cabaret Class! The Guitar Gods at 5.30 learned the "Claw" among other things.. Anyways a couple of lesson piccies.. My creative beginner keyboard students composed their own piano pieces using simplified notation.. They were awesome!

15.01.2022 Assessment piece for Beginner Students in Second Semester Guitar Lessons (Thursday Classes)..

13.01.2022 How we do #guitar lessons :) #likeaboss

12.01.2022 Wow, Broadway in a Week Auditions were awesome yesterday! Thoroughly enjoyed watching my 11 yo daughter (self proclaimed "veteran" having done it last year) and my funny son (9 yo first timer!) run through Group Audition Games (oh yes, singing and dancing) along with the 30 or 40 other kids there :)

11.01.2022 Last week the Wednesday Group Guitar Class students had tried out Electric Guitar in Honour of "Rock Week" (I was in charge of Volume lol)! They all rocked..

06.01.2022 This week my little bunch of aspiring musicians and singers talked about musicals, fave artists and fave songs. Everything from Hairspray to Bruno Mars ensued!! Right now this song is a big fave amongst the kids from Guitar and Vocal classes - even the Keyboard class sang it for me!

06.01.2022 Happy holidays!! Here's a little sunshine for my singers and guitarists out there - Lennon and Maisy singing "That's what's up" enjoy! Vinnie :)

06.01.2022 Hi all!! I'm finally starting to feel human again after surgery in week 1 of the school holidays! Just a broadcast reminder to my lovely parents that Term 2 lessons start the week after Anzac - that's the week starting Monday 28 April! I will contact you over the next couple of days to re-confirm classes and times.... Waitlist parents - I will also contact you later this week about lesson opportunities :) In the meantime, feel free to inbox me with any specific questions, otherwise, I will chat to you all soon! Vinnie x

04.01.2022 **NEW** PENINSULA YOUTH CHOIR! What do you think? I'm looking at trialling a Youth Choir in Term Three.. All ages/abilities - with a view to learning and performing some Contemporary Christmas Carols in Term Four.. #feedback please!

04.01.2022 Alrighty!! After unsuccessfully trying to cut my finger off over Cup Weekend, I'm back on track with all things Concert related.. So far the kids have been fabulous, practicing feverishly in class, and surprising themselves at how well they are doing. That being said, there will still be nerves on the night, and possible mishaps.. Between now and then, lets cheer our kids on as much as possible, praise them when they practice, encourage them to keep going if they make mistakes.. The concert is all about giving the kids opportunities at the level they are at - whether it's blowing us away with their amazing gift, conquering that fear of singing in front of people, performing for the first time, or just plain getting up and giving it a red hot go! I'm looking forward to it!! Vinnie xx

03.01.2022 Just had to share these pics - my rascals in Wednesday Keyboard Class learning simplified notation..

03.01.2022 Buckle up!!! Term One Wednesday classes start 12 February - that's tomorrow!! Afternoon Timetable: 4.00 - 4.30 Keyboard ... 4.45 - 5.15 Group Vocals 5.30 - 6.00 Guitar Single lessons (you know who you are) start at 7.00pm #LetTheGoodTimesRoll
