MONKEY MUSIC

At Monkey Music we passionately believe that it’s so important for your child’s development to be immersed in making music in a structured group, with a progressive curriculum that supports each stage of their development.
A huge hit with local families for the last 20 years, our award winning Monkey Music classes support each stage of your little one's development with 4, age specific music classes from 3 months to 4 yrs old, supporting each stage of learning and development as a little musician.

Our fourth stage Ding-Dong classes (for children from 3 to 4 years old) teach your child to read music and learn about (and try!) all the instruments of the orchestra, providing them with the best possible platform from which to go on and learn a musical instrument at school.

It’s a unique class, something which is not available at your little one’s nursery curriculum, and the educational benefits are enormous, reading and writing skills are hugely enhanced as well as co- ordination skills and social skills, it’s so much fun too!
Over the course of the year the children learn to recognise all the different instruments of the orchestra, both visually and aurally, with many of the instruments bought to the class for them to try.
The children also learn to read, clap, play and conduct written music incorporating musical theory signs and are encouraged to sing individually and as a group using recognised sol-fa hand signs. There’s lots of fun musical games and at the end of class the children listen to musical stories and as time goes on they start to express their musical preferences and enjoy discussing all the varied types of music they are hearing.
We also offer a FREE first class too!
