At Little Learners music is embedded with our most talented Miss Iva..

Music in early childhood is crucial for brain development, boosting cognitive, social, emotional, and physical skills by strengthening neural connections through activities like singing, dancing, and playing instruments, which enhance language, memory, coordination, and self-expression, making learning fun and holistic.

The Benefits with exposure to Music uses both brain hemispheres, creating more efficient neural pathways. It's a non-verbal communication tool, making it ideal for emotional release and connection, supporting all aspects of a child's development naturally and joyfully.

Just a reminder to enquire for the new subsidy assisting families with affordable childcare access.

From 5 January 2026, all CCS eligible families can now get at least 72 hours of subsidised child care per fortnight.

Families can get 100 hours of subsidised child care each fortnight for each child if they:

are caring for an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander child
have more than 48 hours each fortnight of recognised participation
have an exemption or experience exceptional circumstances, or
receive Additional Child Care Subsidy (ACCS) child wellbeing, temporary financial hardship or grandparent payments.
Families can find out more about how this applies to their specific circumstances on the Services Australia website.

Families:

do not need to do anything if they already get CCS
must still pay a gap fee, except in certain circumstances
must still meet entitlement and eligibility criteria.
