Today is International Day of the Girl 💛

Around the world, 133 million girls are out of school.

Today is a reminder of why access to education and opportunity matters so much.

We're lucky to be working alongside our partners MECCA M-POWER to give more young people opportunties to create and reach their potential through arts learning.🎨🎵

"I feel calm, relaxed and just focused on the song", says Imaya, a student participating in The Bridge program that brings real world music industry professionals into the classroom.

Listening to Imaya describe how music makes her feel tells us how it can help develop critical social and emotional learning skills, like self-regulation.

Music in the classroom can be loud, fun and full of energy, but it can also be incredibly calming and create moments of focus. 💛

Here’s a snippet of “Seasons” 🎵, an original song written by students at Ardeer South Primary School as part of their Primary Production program.

And the creativity doesn’t stop with the music! 🎨
We LOVE seeing the incredible album artwork students create to bring their tracks to life.

Creative confidence starts young. 🎨✨

New research commissioned by MECCA found that two-thirds of Australian women felt creative most or all of the time as children. In adulthood, that falls to just one-third.

Through our partnership with MECCA M-POWER, we’re helping more young people build the confidence to find their creative voice, and hold onto it. 💛🎵

We're presenting at the Yarra & Darebin Principal's Conference today!

Our wonderful team, Arts Learning Director, Amelia Christou, and Educational Partnerships Manager, Milly Petriella, are presenting on the impact of The Song Room's programs in strengthening conditions for students to thrive in all areas of their learning.

Our program outcomes show that arts learning is a critical tool for building connection, student wellbeing and engagement. When these foundations are strong, students are able to achieve success in other areas such as literacy, numeracy, SEL and criticial and creative thinking.

If you're exploring new ways to create opportunities for your students to learn, create and thrive, get in touch with us here: https://www.songroom.org.au/contact-us/

We'd love to discuss ways our tailored arts programs can support your school's priorities and goals.

🚨New track alert: GROWING UP 📢

We love the original song Chester Hill North Public School students wrote as part of their Primary Production Program. Growing Up is all about about their journey as they move on to high school, and how they're staying strong 💪 and resilient together.

A special shoutout to our incredible Primary Production team, KYE, Declan Dias and Charnel, who helped these students find their creative voices... and WOW, are we listening 🎧✨

Primary Production is proudly funded by the NSW Government through SOUND NSW.

Hear from Darrang Primary School Arts Teacher Anna, on the impact The Song Room has had not only for her students, but for her own development.

For Anna, working alongside a Song Room Teaching Artist has helped her strengthen her practice and build greater confidence and capacity as an arts teacher.

It's easy to make friends when you're having fun together!

One student at Ardeer South Primary School showed us just how important teamwork and creativity is for making connections.

When music gives children the confidence to share, take risks and experiment, we see them come out of their shells. It helps them connect with their classmates and build new friendships. 🎤✨
