Kids Jam: music-based programme for 6-10 year olds

Kids Jam is a music based programme for children who:

Are aged between 6 and 10 years old
Experience ongoing challenges engaging socially with their peers
Have become progressively isolated from taking part in the types of everyday activities which enhance their cognitive, emotional and physical developmental milestones

This programme is provided in certain locations (schools) only. Contact us for more information.

What to expect

In these sessions, children actively engage in improvised music however they can. Your child doesn't need to have any experience of singing or playing an instrument – the focus is on creating a motivating and engaging environment where kids can grow and learn.

Programme aims

Kids Jam aims to give children the chance to participate in activities that encourage team work, communication, confidence, movement and collaboration through music.

Staff and delivery

Programme staff may include AUT students from physiotherapy, occupational therapy, nursing, podiatry, oral health, speech and language therapy and music therapy.

It is delivered in collaboration with the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre.
