        |   Welcome to our
        Spring newsletter! Here at Music for Change our Early Years music
        project is in full swing; so far we have reached over 500 children ages
        0-5 in 16 pre-schools and 8 Children's Centres across Kent.     We would like
        to thank our volunteers, Audrey Maire and Paul Beckley for their time
        and support over the past few months and we wish Paul all the best in
        his new job! We would also like to welcome two new volunteers to the
        team; Morgan Gilday and Charlotte Grainger. Many thanks to all our volunteers
        for their time and support.   We are currently
        recruiting a consultant to work with us on organisational development.

          Workshops
 
            Music for Change is delivering workshops and projects
          based around the Olympic Games and Values. Workshops can be tailored
          to encompass a range of topics across the curriculum and will include
          an emphasis on Olympic and Paralympic Values: respect, excellence,
          friendship, courage, determination, inspiration
          and equality.    Participants will explore issues of culture and
          identity raised by the Olympics and will create their own vision
          of the Olympics using music, song, dance and visual arts. Artists
          are highly experienced in allowing each participant to contribute
          their ideas and in encouraging collaboration and creativity in an
          exciting workshop environment.   
           We will work with you to adapt projects and
          workshops to your specific needs, so please call us on 01227 459243
          to discuss your requirements.
