To provide high quality arts-based programs for disadvantaged children and young people to enhance their education, personal development, social skills and community involvement.
Music and creative arts give children the chance to experience success and to better engage in their school and community. Participation in the arts improves children's self esteem and learning outcomes and as a result, they are more likely to stay at school and have successful futures.
Whilst international research has demonstrated the children who learn music and arts have improved educational, social and personal outcomes; currently in Australia, up to 3 out of 4 children in Government Primary School have no music teachers. That equates to over 700,000 children missing out and often they are the children who need it the most.The Song Room targets its long-term, free and tailored programs to disadvantaged children who would otherwise not have such opportunities, including socio-economically disadvantaged children, urban and rural Indigenous youth, children with learning, health or behavioural challenges, new migrant arrivals and children for whom English is a second language, children at risk of juvenile crime involvement, very young children (0-5 years) in disadvantaged areas and children in geographically isolated and remote regions.
So far The Song Room has reached over 200,000 disadvantaged children with its unique, free and tailored programs and is currently reaching over 40,000 disadvantaged children in 250 programs per year across Australia.
