SUMMARY:Loopy Tunes Preschool Music - Workshop for Educators
DESCRIPTION:Greymouth: Wed\, 22 Apr\, from 1-2.30pm\, at Tai Poutini Polytechnic \nDarfield: Thu\, 23 Apr\, from 1-2.30pm\, at the Darfield Recreation Centre \nWorkshop fee is $46 per person (booking fee\, optional) \nWe are excited to offer a workshop for kaiako | educators | musicians | volunteers | children’s music enthusiasts to come along to\, to learn more about the mahi that we do\, the resources we have to offer (and how we use them in our classes)\, and more! \nThe following is what the workshop will include: \n\nA focus on deconstructing the music classes we run\nSharing the different ways we use the bilingual songs that we create\nLots of group discussion\, using it as a time to share resources with each other\nSome Q&A time towards the end of the workshop\nSome “brain food” (aka. light nibbles) to help encourage some good discussons! Please email us directly if you have any food intolerances that we need to consider.\nA certificate of completion to add to your professtional development kete!\n\n  \nWe are Siu Williams-Lemi and Leah Williams-Partington\, a sister music duo\, based in Ōtautahi/Christchurch\, who specialise in bilingual Māori children’s music\, who have been running community preschool music classes for over 15 years. These classes are a HUGE part of our “why” and we are grateful for the opportunity to not only share what we have learned along the way\, but to also offer a space to share together with other kaiako in the same field. As with any of our performances\, this will be very interactive and we will have you all up and enjoying a kanikani and singalong with us… more than once! \nHere is some feedback from previous workshops: \nThe workshop provided excellent new ideas and served as a great reminder that even small efforts can make a big difference! \nLovely ladies. Inclusive\, welcoming\, and valuable sharing of ideas. Fabulous waiata – wonderful resourced – it is special that so many children get to hear their own languages and therefore feel seen\, heard\, included and valued. \nLeah and Siu were both so lovely to talk to in person and so down to earth. I got so many great ideas for how to run music sessions with my preschoolers. Thank you so much! \nThanks for being so generous in sharing your music and mahi! Awesome for someone like me who is not so musically gifted but know the importance of it for our tamariki
