The age recommendations outlined for Kindermusik classes have been carefully constructed to group children in an age and developmentally appropriate way. Therefore it is important that your child be at least the minimum age by the start of the semester for the class in which you are enrolling.

Village________0-18mths

Our Time_____18mths-3yrs

Imagine That! _3-5yrs

Family Time____Multiple children 0-6yrs

Young Child _5-7yrs

If you have concerns about your child’s success in a particular age range, we are happy to discuss your child’s needs and work with you to place him in the class best suited for him.

How much is the Kindermusik course?

Prices and course length vary for the different age groups.

Please note that these prices include the award-winning materials that go home with the family the first week of term. At Home Materials allow the Kindermusik experience to be continued in the home. 

Our Time and Imagine That! programs usually run over 2 terms (18 weeks).   Use the following table to find out the enrolment fee (tuition & materials) for each class:

The At Home Materials are the award winning age-appropriate learning tools that go home with each child at the beginning of the term. Kindermusik is much more than just a weekly class. Your At Home Materials are just the tools you need to continue that one-of-a-kind experience together as a family.

While we plant the seeds of learning through music in the classroom, you will use the At Home Materials at home to cultivate lifelong learning.

Unless otherwise stated all At Home Materials are provided on the first day of class as part of the enrolment fee (unless enrolment is late). Here is a list of the contents of each package:

Village At Home Materials:

• Baby’s Literature Book – Board book with delightful, colourful artwork.
• Baby’s Home Journal – Scrapbook-like book that includes home activity cards
• Home CD – Features all songs and chants from class plus more!
• Baby Toy – For fine/gross motor skills
• Carry Bag

Our Time At Home Materials:

Imagine That At Home Materials:

What should I expect from a Trial Class?

If you and your child are able to make it to a trial class, it is a good opportunity to meet the teacher and see her learning style. You will also see the variety of the activites in a typical kindermusik class and may get a chance to see the quality of the At Home Materials.

While we will invite everyone to participate in the activities it is wise not to expect too much from your child on the first day. It is not uncommon for a child to attend for several weeks before feeling comfortable in class. Don’t be discouraged – what a child is absorbing in class is often evidenced in the comfort of the home environment rather than in a certain level of participation in class. The most important thing you can do for your child is to be an active and patient role model.

Are there any other discounts available?

If you enrol a second child you will receive a 10% discount off the second child’s tuition only.

To further reduce the cost, Sibling Kits are offered to parents with a second or third child in the same class. (Sibling Kits exclude At Home items that don’t need to be doubled up, such as a CD, or literature book.)

If your younger child is over 6mths, it is best to book into a Family Time class as the pace of this class is designed for parents wishing to bring more than one child to class. This program is also particularly designed to encourge siblings to enjoy music together.

Due to limited class sizes and the delicacy of the younger class settings Village and Our Time classes can only accommodate non-enrolled siblings when the sibling is young enough to stay contented in a capsule or stroller. However, emergency situations are considered, so please call if we can help.

There is no refund for a child missing a class. However a child who has missed a class due to illness may be able to get a free catch up class at a different location.

If a teacher is sick and a replacement teacher cannot be found, the class will be rescheduled.

All classes are 45 minutes long.

Yes. Classes do not take place on public holidays or during school holidays.

We do request that toys and juice cups be kept out of sight and that snacks be finished prior to class. Be sure to dress comfortably.

Yes, parents play an important role in any Kindermusik class.

During class, the most important thing you can do for your child is to be an active and patient role model. It is not uncommon for a child to attend for several weeks before feeling comfortable in class. Don’t be discouraged – what a child is absorbing in class is often evidenced in the comfort of the home environment rather than in a certain level of participation in class. The understanding and consistency of the parent or caregiver in the class and at home are key to facilitating musical learning and growth.

You and your child will benefit enormously from the Kindermusik experience, especially if you make active use of your At Home Materials. Reinforcement and enjoyment of the Kindermusik materials make all the difference to a child’s feeling of comfort and security in the classroom.

The first half hour of the Imagine That! class for 3-5 year olds, the children attend on their own but all family members are invited into the class for the final 15 minutes of Sharing Time.

Do you offer a Guarantee?

Although you may join our classes at anytime, you should register early since class sizes are limited and many fill quickly. Enrolling at least 3 weeks before the semester begins also ensures that we will have your child’s materials ready for the first class.

Students enrolled by the Early Bird date will receive a discount.

A place can be secured (and materials ordered) with a minimum deposit. The balance is required on the 3rd week of term. [If you need to pay in instalments due to difficulty paying by lump sum, then an agreed arrangement for this can be discussed.]

All fee rates and payment details can be found on the enrolment form.

Only cheque, cash or electronic transfer will be accepted. Electronic transfer details are available on the enrolment form. All cheques should be made out to LifeSong. Cheques can be posted to:
