KINDY ART & MUSIC
The arts play a crucial role in children's development and creativity, and the Kindy class experienced the benefits of both music and visual arts.
Mr. Brad, a music therapist from Shine Time Music Therapy, led music lessons that focused on the rhythms of music. The students participated by playing a variety of instruments and following simple musical instructions.
Local Indigenous artist Jennifer Kent from Manamana Dreaming visited the Kindy, forming connections with the students and painting an outdoor mural that reflected the story of the Kindy class. Each current and past Kindy student from IAS was able to contribute to the mural, sharing in the story of the Kindy.
