At BestStart Rototuna, we believe in providing enriching experiences that inspire growing minds.
Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting Kirstin from Little Minstrel, who brought the magic of music to our centre.
The children were introduced to a variety of songs and musical instruments, sparking curiosity and creativity. Music is a powerful tool for learning and development. Through singing and playing instruments, children enhance their language skills, rhythm, coordination, and confidence.
Engaging in musical activities also strengthens memory and supports emotional well-being. As they explored different beats and melodies, our tamariki (children) expressed themselves in new and exciting ways. This experience also highlights the importance of community connections.
Kirstin’s visit introduced our children to a local music specialist, reinforcing the value of collaboration and learning from others. It’s through these connections that we extend learning beyond our centre, exposing children to diverse experiences that shape their development.
At BestStart Rototuna, our vision is to inspire growing minds. By integrating music into our curriculum, we nurture creativity, communication, and a lifelong love for learning. We look forward to more musical adventures that continue to enrich the lives of our tamariki!
