Mozart Music Mouse (Since 1997) 
Mozart Music Mouse and a qualified music teacher will visit the school every week to present a wonderful music course. Currently, children in more than 10 schools are taking advantage of this popular music education program. Pupils will receive a music diploma at the end of the year.
Aim: To develop a love and awareness for music. This will form the base for formal training in music (piano etc) in years to come. The course is mostly classical, but other types of music will also feature. The children learn in a relaxed and playful manner to discover and enjoy classical music. Classical music stimulates the child to develop better concentration. Emotional-, social-, intellectual- and motor skills will also be developed. This will contribute to a happy, positive and balanced child.
Mozart’s classical works are specifically suited to stimulate the mind and facilitate learning. This is dubbed The Mozart Effect.
Lessons will consist of the following:
| • Time and rhythms |
Your child will learn to understand music notes on paper and to play from a score. |
| • Singing |
We sing songs while dancing or playing on instruments. |
| • Movement |
We move our bodies to the rhythm of the music and learn a dance. |
| • Orchestra (Percussion) |
We play on instruments like the triangle, bells, shakers, sticks and the xylophone. |
| • Music Stories |
All music is presented in story form. |
| • Aural Training |
We learn about the sounds of different instruments and various musical styles and do aural training. |
| • Creative Activities |
We stimulate musical creativity by dressing up to the music and play musical games. |
| • Listening to music |
Classical music (90%), other popular music (10%). |
