PD Workshop Announcement The Singing Clasroom with Sue Arney

Hello everyone,

We have just booked our first PD workshop for 2015 (Term 2);  The Singing Classroom with Sue Arney.


Wangaratta Presentation:  2013


"A Professional Learning program for generalist primary classroom teachers offering them support, confidence, skills and resources to sing more regularly with their students."

“Music education uniquely contributes to the emotional, physical, social and cognitive growth of all students.”

National Review of School Music Education, Australia, 2005


Imagine a school day where singing is an integral part of the program – not an add-on or an extra activity, but integrated into the existing daily program. aMuse is pleased to launch this exciting new program in 2012 aimed at providing generalist primary teachers with the skills and resources to build the confidence needed to sing regularly with their students!

“The key with meaningful music learning, is that it has to be ‘continuous, sequential and developmental’ for students to benefit. We know, for example, that as few as 23% of government schools are able to offer their students a music education which fits that bill - they would like to, but they lack the resources. In private schools, the number leaps up to 88%.”

This PD will be held in the Wodonga South Primary School Music room.  As usual it will be a catered workshop.  As this is a self-funded PD we have had to bump the price of the booking fee (sorry!) to $15 for CRTs and $40 for other teaching professionals.  Bookings will be opened first to CRTs and to other teaching professionals at a later date.

Date:  Sat 16 May 2015.
Max attendance: 40
Bookings open:  Mon 6 Apr (CRTs - other teaching professionals will open at a later date if places remain).

Full details will be released shortly before booking opens!
