Did you know that preschoolers have a natural love of music? Level 3 classes use music to boost language skills, confidence, social-emotional skills, and self-control.
Annual enrolment fee of $35 plus tax applies upon enrolment. Subscription style class with equal payments of $105 plus tax on the 1st of each month through June. Fees will be prorated where appropriate for enrolments after the 1st of the month. After the 4 week Happiness Guarantee period ends, written notice 30 days prior to the 1st must be provided for withdrawal. All fees are reviewed and any sibling rates and/or prorations adjusted prior to processing once enrolment is completed.
Our Level 3 classes start with instrument exploration and lean into how to play music as a group. Preschoolers experience all the excitement of new sounds and independent creativity, while fueling their social-emotional development (and school readiness!) by learning how to work together.
Mandi Galer began studying piano at age 6 with the RCM. At 13, she was accepted into Cawthra Park''s vocal jazz program where she discovered her true gift in music. In 1997, she earned her diploma, with honours, from Humber College''s music program. Mandi continued down her musical path, with a full roster of voice and piano students as well as performing and writing with many talented musicians and bands. But Mandi wanted to give more back to the community. Mandi recognized the need for more musicians educating young children in music as most musicians teach at a higher level of education. So, when Mandi discovered Kindermusik, she was ecstatic! She obtained her Kindermusik license founded Sing Music Studio in 2006. Now, as a Kindermusik Maestro, Miss Mandi maintains a Kindermusik program in the top 5% of worldwide programs, continues to write music and perform in bands and could not be happier or more thankful for being able to share her passion for music with children.
Our mission is to bring a sparkle to the eyes of everyone we touch. We support our mission by leaning in to our core values: Engage Connection, Enliven Passion, Empower Confidence, Express Creativity and Encourage Excellence. Our mission and values are at the heart of everything we do.
