Does your child love singing around the house or in the shower? Do you ever hear them singing and wonder if they have potential but you’re not really sure?

Regardless of your child's ability, singing helps build confidence, memory training, language and auditory skills along with improving lung function and breathing awareness. Professor Sarah Wilson from the School of Psychological Sciences at the University of Melbourne suggests that singing offers a range of neuroprotective benefits, as well as activating a range of networks associated with movement, listening, planning, memory, and language, singing triggers the release of the feel-good neurotransmitter dopamine.

Somerset College singing teachers Miss Jenine Carnell, and Miss Mia Fanning are both qualified singing teachers having studied vocal pedagogy at the Qld Conservatorium of Music as well as being professional contemporary singers for many years.

This year there are currently small singing group vacancies for Years 3, 4 and 5 as well as limited places for individual lessons for all students from Years 3 to 12. Click here to learn how to enrol your child in singing lessons today.
