Over $180,000 Raised for Music Therapy in our Kindergartens

When a child finds their voice through music, they also discover new ways to connect, learn and thrive.

This outstanding result would not have been possible without our major sponsors: 3AW Melbourne, Marriner Group, De Bortoli Family and Kieser Australia.

We also thank:

• Heidi Murphy – our wonderful MC

• Russell Morris – for an unforgettable performance

• Ross Stevenson and Russel Howcroft – for co-hosting alongside the 3AW Breakfast Team (Jon Anderson, Peter Ford, Glenn Robbins, John Silvester)

• Elaine and David Marriner, Leonie McNicol, Lynda Turnball, Jeanette Finegan, Molly Finegan, Sarah Krell, and all of our incredible volunteers who brought the event to life.

And our valued supporters:

To share this vision, we created a short film with Transcend Media at our McLeans Road Kindergarten, featuring music therapist Stef Zappino and Kids First Early Childhood Educator Pat Brolly. The video captures the joy, connection and growth that music can bring to young learners.
