Shining Stars

Over the past few weeks the kids have been busily working away on developing their musical talents with Tadeu, our club's music teacher. They have been making instruments, working on rythms,learning,practicing, and of course having tons of fun while doing so.

The music program is bringing out the best in our kids, and some of them have amazing talents that are really shining through now. They are learning to work as a team, and this is very important in music. Everyone has to work together to know who plays when, who breaks when, what sounds good together, etc.

It is so great to watch the kids develop, and watch them grow as people. This music program is really helping, and by teaching them musical skills, it is providing opportunities for them in the future.

Even our volunteers love getting involved in the music program, and the kids love having volunteers there.

We'll keep updated on the kids progression in the program.
