ChiME Music Lessons for Kids

Early Childhood Music Education

Beginning at WollCon in the early 70’s our early childhood music program, now known as ChiME, is one of our most successful programs, igniting a lifelong passion for music among the youngest in our community.

WollCon’s music lessons for kids are designed for children aged 1-8years, providing children with the opportunity to explore music through singing, playing, moving, listening and creating. ChiME is based on the latest research into child development and early childhood education, recognising the importance of a child’s “play-full” exposure to quality music experiences.

Music lessons for kids of an early age provides them with a creative opportunity to discover, express and share who they are. We use our whole self when making music – as your child explores and develops their brain and imagination as well as developing their physical abilities through playing, moving and singing.

During each ChiME lesson you and your child join other parents/carers and their children on a path of music exploration that will help develop your child’s social skills and self-confidence, as well as their sense of belonging and well-being.

With parent/carer participation, and no more than ten children per class, each child experiences the positive world of music in a fun, relaxed, supportive and stimulating environment.

The ChiME program culminates in a Transition year where students try over 15 different instruments, including speech, drama and singing, helping them choose an instrument or focus to which they are most suited.

Watch your child thrive as they rise to each new challenge and help them develop a lifelong love of music.
