Our wonderful teachers
Annie
After studying music at QUT and working as a professional musician through Qld, Annie developed the Rhapsodaisy Program in response to the learning needs of her own three children. Every child leans on their strengths to successfully learn. They might be good visual learners, aural learners or kinaesthetic learners.
She wanted to create a program that was inclusive and multi-sensory in its approach to allow each child to use their unique strengths to learn, whilst being supported by all their senses. Having spent many years playing, producing and teaching music, she was compelled to create an accompanying album of original and traditional tunes.
Each song supports the Rhapsodaisy learning activities that children enjoy in class – Music has to be fun!
