Apple Tree Arts is where children experience the joy of music making. Active music making has been proven to help build brain power, support language development and help with the development of coordination, fine motor and creative thinking skills. The school uses the critically acclaimed Musik Garten curriculum which provides students with a pathway to musical literacy through rhythmic and aural experiences.
Early childhood music classes also nurture critical listening and thinking skills, support pre-reading skills and assist with the understanding of math and spatial relationships.
