Kia ora koutou whānau! ✨
Something has been sitting closely on my heart lately that I wanted to share with you all.
If your child is constantly singing, or showing even the smallest spark of wanting to learn—please, I encourage you to nurture that gift! Whether it’s getting them into lessons or simply letting them sing their heart out at home, fuel that fire. 🎶
When we encourage our tamariki to sing, we are doing so much more than just developing their vocal cords. We are building their unshakable confidence. We are handing them the tools to express themselves, sparking their endless creativity, and as we all know—music is profound medicine for the mind and soul. 💛
As a kaiako who has the privilege of teaching in these creative spaces, I see the long-term magic firsthand. When these young ones step into high school—whether they are standing tall in kapa haka, shining in the school show, or exploring the music room—those who were encouraged early on step in with such a beautiful, powerful head start.
Let’s give them that foundation. Let them sing! 🎤🌟
Let them perform
