Creative Kids Trust had a lot of fun during
Music Therapy Week.
Last week Creative Kids Trust celebrated Music Therapy Week at the Blenheim Library. Music Therapists were in action with some of the Creative Kids, having a jam session around the piano. Music therapy sessions are conducted in a safe and confidential environment subsequently the Creative Kids rarely perform in public, perhaps just once or twice a year. Anna Moore & Yvonne MacSweeny, NZ Registered Music Therapist, are two of our members who provide Music Therapy through Creative Kids Trust. If you’d like to get a feel for what happens at the heart of their organisation watch here… What a wonderful gift!
