A fantastic program, facilitated by a highly qualified and talented musician, for children with a love of music.
Children learn various percussion instruments and have a whole lot of fun making music together. Delivered as three separate sessions to cater to various interests and talent:
Gentle percussion program for children who like a quieter and relaxed music environment.
Dynamic percussion program for children who like a louder and more energetic music environment.
Rock Band program for developing musicians, where children from KidsWish and adults from The Disability Trust’s Rock Band program come together to form The RockIts Band who love to perform at various KidsWish and community events.

What do you love about KidsRock?
“The KidsRock program is designed for kids who love music and who want to share their joy with others… to be able to experiment, to learn new skills, but more than anything, to simply enjoy the thrill of making inspiring music with friends!
Above all, we’re a band, so our musical choices are generated together! All band members actively contribute ideas about what (and how) we play to ensure our sessions are not only heaps of fun but are genuinely inclusive.”
