Baby Classes

These special adult-child classes are held in our Malvern East home for for 0-11 month olds. Class sizes are kept small (with a maximum of five children) and are filled with music to inspire bonding and playfulness. You’ll hear lullabies, learn lap and finger plays, simple circle dances, bounces and meet many sweet puppet friends. Each class is filled with live singing and instruments of varying timbre. You’ll walk away with many new play ideas to continue the joy at home!

Music & Movement

Classes are open-ended and filled with opportunities for children to bring forward their own ideas to ensure their education is collaborative and meaningful. Expect to explore a range of instrumentation with contrasting timbres along with activities, puppets, dance and props that assist developmental milestones; such as gross and fine motor development. The mixed age group makes this an ideal class for families with siblings and fosters inclusion across all ages.

Music & Movement

Over 3 years

Expect an increase in the musical terminology used with the introduction of solfege and music notation. Using the foundations of our under threes music and music program, children build upon their learning through playbased opportunites which present new and exciting challenges. We explore ensemble playing with elements such as soloing, improvisation and creating soundscapes. Fostering confident tuneful singing is a big focus for this age group.

Keyboard Lessons

Over 4 years

Keyboard lessons with a twist. These lesson are playful, artful and focused on the music making – not just the music notation. Students learn to use their singing voice (because if you can’t sing it, you can’t play it!), their body and their ears to learn and express the musical language both on and off the keyboard.

Gumnut music is inventive, keeps the kids engaged and there is never a dull moment. Often I catch the kids humming and singing songs they have learnt at home too. Highly recommend Louise and her team!
