Music in our classrooms

Kia ora Kidsedchatters,

This week here at Kidsedchatnz HQ we have been wondering about all our talented singers, songwriters, musicians, and performers, give it a go kids, and dancers who love music.

Now, I know we all have talents in certain areas...could be Maths, or soccer, swimming, dancing, BMX.  This week though we want to hear not just about talent, but we want to hear how music impacts on your learning.

Across our beautiful Motu we have many competitions that celebrate music and performing.

It could be the J-Rock, or it could be your local Pasifika Festival, or it could be the amazing teacher in your class who can rock out the guitar and get you all singing.

Make sure you watch some of the videos below before our chat on Friday.
