Tonight the site was officially launched at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music 'Technology in music education' presentation evening. While the technical aspects of the site have now all been smoothed out, there is still much work to be done. General primary teachers get little to no training in music eduation, despite the fact that music is the most (and I don't say that lightly) beneficial pursuit for any child. Please join us in closing the gap between kids that get the chance to learn music and those who don't. Sign up for the forum, post your questions and answers here, and give and receive advice. If you have an instrument lying around that you're not sure how to play, make a post and I'll make a tutorial on how to play that instrument. Any questions about where to start? What kind of expectations you should have going into this? let us know.

It's fantastic to have you here! My work here is heavily based on the anecdotes of others and I hope to get input from as many people as possible. If you remember your experiences of what music was like in primary and secondary school, your ruminations and ideas are invaluable to me and to other music educators trying to bring a culture of music to all schools. If you would like to post a topic telling us a bit about your experiences, please post it under 'contributions'. This applies to your memories of being a learner, and/or any useful experience you have in teaching. If you have any questions for me or any other members of the site, please post them under 'questions'. Have something to say? Leave a comment or share a post!
