Description

The Song Room is a national not-for-profit organisation that provides opportunities for enhanced learning and development for disadvantaged children through music and the creative arts.

The Song Room vision is that all Australian children have the opportunity to participate in music and the arts to enhance their education, personal development and community involvement.

Whilst international research  has demonstrated that children who learn music and arts have improved educational, social and personal outcomes, currently in Australia it is estimated that up to 3 out of 4 children   in Government Primary Schools have no music teachers. That equates to over 700,000 children missing out and often they are the children that need it most.

The Song Room targets its efforts to providing tailored programs to such disadvantaged children, who would otherwise miss out, including socio-economically disadvantaged school communities with no access to music / arts, Indigenous communities both in urban and remote rural regions, special schools with students with learning, health and disability challenges, New arrivals with English as a second language, disengaged children with behavioural problems, or in areas of high juvenile crime who need to re-engage at school, early intervention programs for children (0 - 5 years) with parents in disadvantaged areas, and geographically isolated and remote schools.

The Song Room offers a range of tailored music-based and creative arts programs including: long-term in-school workshops (minimum of six months per school, one day per week), community school holiday workshops to engage young people in positive and creative activities in a supervised environment involving parents and families  Interactive performance programs provide students and teachers with the inspiration and motivation to engage in further music and performing arts programs and activities and capacity building initiatives to create self-sustainable programs.
