Developed by a team of early literacy experts, this module builds your child’s literacy skills through a selection of fun and interactive activities. Each activity is designed to keep your child engaged in reading and writing.

Preschoolers in Playgroup and Nursery 1 will first be introduced to basic literacy skills. In Nursery 2, they progress to key skills like phonemic and phonological awareness through our unique “Say and Sing” approach.

Developed in collaboration with Dean Carey, our Dean of Theatre, each lesson in our Drama module is grounded in three pillars: Confidence, Creativity and Collaboration.

Through basic actor training, your child will develop his/her imagination, communication skills and self-confidence – all while experiencing the power of the spoken word.

This module covers foundational acting techniques, storytelling and improvisation, as well as experiences of empathy, understanding and positive reinforcement. Your child will learn to express himself/herself through a variety of activities, including original stories from our in-house library collection.

There are many benefits to an early exposure to dance – it provides physical training that develops stamina, flexibility and physical strength. Dance is also a shared experience that requires teamwork and discipline, and which creates a physical “language” of expression using the body within a given space.

We will bring these benefits to your child through dedicated dance lessons, which include both group and individual work.

Most types of dance are performed to 8-beat music, which will help to reinforce your child’s grasp of basic numeracy concepts such as patterning, sequencing and counting. The repetitive nature of dance also allows your child to acquire skills like coordination and memory at his/her own pace.

Our goal is not to shape your child into a star performer. Instead, we work on developing your child’s creativity, confidence and perseverance through dance, empowering him/her to make a difference in the dynamic world of tomorrow.

MindChamps Music has achieved a historic first by attaining patent status across three territories – the US (Patent No: 11,790,800), UK (Patent No: GB2607416), and Australia (Patent No: 2022202096).

This breakthrough programme draws on fundamental concepts shared between five literacies: Numerical, Language, Social, Emotional and Musical, and functions as a bridge and a catalyst to the development of other literacies. In other words, instead of the traditional method of teaching subjects such as numeracy, language and social skills in separate silos, this MindChamps Music takes an interdisciplinary approach, developing shared fundamental concepts across numerous subjects which leads to greater understanding.

A three-year empirical research study conclusively demonstrated that MindChamps Music enabled students to achieve significant improvements in scores on internationally recognised measures of language literacy (ToPEL) and numeracy (TEMA).
These results have attracted the interest of major universities, including the University of South Australia (UniSA), which has already commenced the next phase of study on the programme.
