MUSIC -Count us in...getting ready to sing a new tune!

Music: Count Us In

It’s Australia’s biggest school music initiative. With support from The Australian Government, it has run since 2007 and is all about celebrating the value of music education to students’ development, whoever they are, wherever they are.

Find our more about why MUSIC learning is important for all schools.

Stop Press!

Minister Garrett has given the green light for Music: Count Us In 2012 and he has committed four years of funding!

This year's culminating day is Thursday, 1st November.

"Decades of research shows that learning music can help students’ self-confidence, self-discipline, team work, it can help to re-engage in school  those students who might have lost interest, can improve school attendance and can even help students make healthy life choices. PLUS there are strong links between music learning and academic skills in literacy and numeracy. Research shows that music is UNIQUE in its flow-on benefits to students who learn it." http://www.musiccountusin.org.au/component/content/article/94
