However, some customers also noted that the session lengths felt too short, with some classes being around 20 minutes due to time spent gathering and saying goodbyes.

Highlight of our week 3 years running!

We have been attending Mini Maestros for almost 3 years now and it's still the highlight of our week! With the help of our fantastic teacher Valerie, our little girl has grown so much in confidence and ability, and now she loves singing and dancing in every spare moment. She is always singing the songs at home or in the car, and it's been amazing to see how much the classes have helped develop her language and vocabulary too! I have made wonderful friends with some of the parents as well, so the sense of community that these classes have brought to our life is very special! Can't wait to see what future classes bring!

Fun for kid and the parents too

Teacher (Shay) is very engaging, my daughter just loves her and the class. The children get to sing, run around and dance, very flexible but they also tend to follow the classes well.

Amazing music time in Altona north

We were so lucky to have Michelle as our music teacher! She is not only incredibly talented and passionate about music, but also amazing with children. She teaches with so much patience, joy, and creativity that every lesson becomes fun and inspiring. My child absolutely loved her classes and learned so much. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, skilled, and dedicated music teacher!

Thank you for your lovely review, wonderful to have “R” in class to help increase her confidence with singing and dancing in the class room environment. Wishing you well, thank you for trekking across town after you moved across to the other side of Melbourne. I look forward to hearing great stories about “R's” pre-school development. 🎶 🐝💕Michelle

Thank you Donna for your very kind review. It’s an absolute pleasure to be able to share the joy of music with children and adults. I love it when I can get everyone up and dancing- I’m sure sometimes the grown ups have more fun with the parachute activities 😂 🎶 🐝💕Kate

A lovely little community group

A lovely little community group with a welcoming atmosphere. However, we found ourselves hoping for a bit more energy and engagement during the session. The 30 minutes went by quite quickly, extending it to 45 minutes with a little more interactive fun and connection could really elevate the experience. It’s a great foundation that could be made even better with just a bit more pizzazz.

Hi Sar, Thank you for your feedback and joining us for the trial classes! I'm glad you enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere and community feel.

We keep our sessions at 30 minutes on purpose as we’ve found with experience this length helps little ones stay focused and engaged without feeling overwhelmed and excited for more! But I do really appreciate your thoughts and love hearing how we can make the experience even better, I’ll definitely keep it in mind.

It was such pleasure having you join us, I’d love to see you and your little one return in the future! 💖🐝 Zee

Thank you Kate

Thank you Kate. Mini Maestros is helping my son build confidence and it’s nurturing his love of music. The knowledge you share about listening and giving children space to speak, as well as how to build literacy is also so helpful. We’re really enjoying your classes.

Thank you Sarah for your very kind review. It is actually one of my favourite parts of being a Mini Maestros teacher, watching the little ones grow in confidence. It’s wonderful when they decide what action they want to do in the welcome song by themselves or when they feel they can join in with movement activities on their own- it’s just little things but all helps towards your little one becoming their own amazing confident self. 🎶 🐝💕 Kate

Fantastic teacher (Tim) - kids loved the lessons

Tim is a fantastic teacher! My children loved these classes - singing, dancing, playing they had the best time. By the end of term the children were playing together and they built a wonderful relationship. I would definitely recommend enrolling your children.

Great introduction to music!

Lorella ran a fantastic class at Wyreena! She was patient and accommodating, letting the kids engage at whichever level they felt comfortable with. Each class had a mix of movement, singing and percussion instruments to help establish the basics. 30mins was just the right length of time for my busy 1.5 yr old! Great location too, a playground and cafe right next door was greatly appreciated

My son Oliver loves attending Mini Maestros with his grandparents. Miss Michelle is talked about a lot in our home and he loves sharing his learnings and new songs every week. It is a great opportunity to socialise and interact with other children and the lessons are fun and engaging. As teachers ourselves, we understand all the work behind the scenes that goes into creating engaging classes for little ones. Thank you Michelle, we appreciate all the love, care and time you put into these classes.

Wholesome & fun activity for my little one

We have done a term of Mini Maestros and my 1 year old loves it. The classes are thoughtfully put together and involve various musical and interactive activities, that are all interesting and fun. It feels good knowing my son is getting a positive introduction to music at a young age, and also he just loves it so much!
