Mini Maestros
Children enrolled in the 4 year old program at Heathmont East Preschool enjoy complimentary Mini Maestro classes over the course of the year

The Mini Maestro programme fosters confidence in children as they learn to follow instruction and are introduced to musical concepts such as beat, rhythm, tempo and volume.

Children learn the names of percussion instruments and how to play them along with songs and dances which develop co-ordination and gross motor skills.

Most importantly - the children have lots of fun!
