Stars in your eyes

Aspiring Beginnings ELC would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved in the collaborative approach of  “Stars in your Eyes” within the Wanaka community.  The wonderful entertainment provided and then the generosity towards the Wanaka community in providing the opportunity to apply for musical resources.  This year was slightly different in that we had to specifically itemised what we would like, which, with the involvement of the children was an exciting proposal.

After much consideration we applied for and received ukuleles, dancing ribbons, drums and tambourines from Trade Aid for the Kaho children (older children) and wooden shaker eggs and drums for the Tipu children (younger children).   The dancing ribbons have provoked learning through dancing, encouraging relationships and expressing themselves.  The drums have been utilised for discovering rhythm and beat, soft/quiet, hard/loud.  The Tipu children are discovering a variety of sounds and rhythm utilising the shakers and drums.  Once again a huge thank you to all those involved and feel free to visit anytime to see the resources in play.
