Thank you so much for your kind words, Jessica! I have absolutely loved seeing Master R every week - he is one of the happiest babies I have ever met! His smiles light up the room and have brought so much joy to all of us! I hope our classes have been just the beginning of his musical journey. I will be looking forward to seeing you all again! 🎵💞🐝 Julia

Thank you so much for your kind words, and for your support in our classes, Jill! This really means a lot to me, especially coming from a fellow teacher! Our program is so well designed in the way that it prepares children for school and for life! I absolutely love being the one who gets to deliver it to Master H and his friends - I never take for granted how lucky I am to be a small part of their lives! 😊💕🎵Julia

Hi Katie! Thank you so much for your kind words! I absolutely adore Miss H - her smile and joy light up our room every week! I loved seeing you both grooving along at the concert! I feel blessed to be able to be a part of the little ones’ musical journeys, and I look forward to many more fun classes with you and your little cuteness! 😊🎵💕

First time at an organised class for my…

First time at an organised class for my just turned two year old and wasn't sure what to expect but we both LOVE IT. Our teacher Julia's enthusiasm for the music and genuine affection for each individual child is so lovely and even though there's a bit of singing involved for the parents if your child isn't keen, it's safe and nurturing environment and my daughter talks about her "music class" all the time!

Thank you so much for your kind words Emily! I absolutely love having you and Miss E in our class! Watching her excitement, especially when it comes to dancing is pure joy! I love that the Mini Maestros program can bring so much happiness to both adults and children. I can’t wait to watch Miss E blossom even more in Term 2! Julia 🐝🎵💕

Highlight of Our Week

Julia's classes are always a highlight of our week. My little girl loves them so deeply, she smiles from start to end. I love how small the group size is so that each child receives a lot of 1:1 education and care. My child has been exposed to lots of different instruments and learnt so much about music in a fun, engaging and interactive format. Furthermore she has learnt important group skills such as listening to others, waiting her turn, sharing, etc. Thanks so much mini maestros for a wonderful program!

Mini Maestros classes are the highlight of my week too! I am so lucky to be able to share my passion for children, and their introduction to music education. I believe in setting a strong foundation for music learning, coupled with skills which you mention, that are so important once the children go to upper upper kinder and school. The Mini Maestros program is unique in that it allows the children to learn holistically through play, and is so much fun for all involved! I am so grateful to meet beautiful families along the way – I look forward to seeing each and every one of them every week! Thank you so much for your kind words – they really mean so much to me! 🐝💕🎵 Julia

Grandmother's views

Julia was always positive, welcoming, quickly learned the children's names and ensured they were all included.
Excellent variety of activities.
My only hesitation is concerning the age grouping. My granddaughters birthday is in August so as she is in the 1-2 year old age group she is potentially almost a year older than some other children. At that stage it makes a big difference. One day as we were leaving after a couple of the young ones had been clingy she said "I'm not a baby".... I think she noted the difference.
Perhaps two intakes per year would overcome that.
Overall she is always keen to attend and sings the songs when she gets home. She loves the finger puppets.

Thank you for taking the time to send in your review, Shirley. It’s great to hear you’re enjoying the classes in Black Rock.

Our classes work the same as schools in that children are placed in an age group based on their age as at April 30. This means that in each class there is an age spread of up to 12 months. All the children move up to the next age group at the start of each new year, just like in schools.

Being an August baby, your granddaughter, could be up to 4 months younger or 8 months older than other children in her Mini Maestros class. This will be the same when she reaches school. In the 1 and 2 year old class that you’re currently in, the children happen to all be on the younger side with most born in January - March the following year. We could certainly look for another 1 and 2 year old class for you which has a more even spread of birthdates, so that your granddaughter is more in the middle.

If we were to move your granddaughter up to the next age group (2 and 3 year olds), she would be well over a year younger than some of the other children because many of them have already turned 3. While she might cope with some of the simpler activities, our experience is that younger children are not emotionally ready for things like sharing, taking turns and working with others that the 2 and 3 year old classes require.

It’s great to hear that your granddaughter is keen to come to classes and that she is singing the songs at home. This shows she is absorbing all the learning in classes and then applying it when she is in her comfort zone.

Many thanks again for taking the time to provide your feedback. It’s appreciated. 🐝🎶💕 Julia
