Case Study
HOW MUM OF TWO BROUGHT GROUP MUSIC LESSONS TO THE REMOTE REGIONAL AREA AND THRIVED EVEN DURING LOCKDOWN
Meet Vanessa Munns, wife and mum of two boys owns and lives on a sheep station in the remote wheatbelt region of West Australia, 3 hours drive inland from Perth, the nearest capital city.
We first met Vanessa in January 2020 at Tim Topham's Piano Pivot Live in Melbourne as a recipient of a scholarship from AMEB, the Australian Examinations board. Vanessa told us about her life back home and how she really wanted to make more of a difference in the children's lives as living in such remote conditions where it can be a 3 hour drive to and from school each day, she felt they miss out on so much compared to city kids.
She had a dream to offer an early childhood music program. Her students usually 7 years of age and she only has them for a few years because most go off to boarding school when they are twelve.
Paul and Gillian had long recognised this problem and had often wondered how they might bring music to families in the remote Australian outback. They recognized Vanessa's 'make it happen' style and offered her a scholarship to become the first Accredited Forte Member.
There was enormous support within the community and Vanessa kicked off her Jungle Music (early childhood) classes late February with 16 students! But then, Covid hit...
Like piano teachers around the world Vanessa had to make the move to online teaching. Having never done this before, her first move was to get up her private students up and running. At the time she couldn't even contemplate teaching classes online.
After a few weeks though the urge to see the little faces of her youngest students proven too tempting and Vanessa embraced the challenge, dug deep into her "inner Romper Room " (children's TV show) presenter and 'Miss Vanessa' went online! Watch a glimpse of Vanessa teaching her class online using her iphone!
After four months of lockdown Vanessa started moving back to face to face teaching. Although many of her students opted to stay online. Some for health reasons. Others because they were enjoying the online format without the long drive in from their stations!
Around August, Vanessa started her first Junior Keys group piano class . She now has around 24 - 30 students in her early childhood classes and 7 children in her Junior Keys class.
Vanessa is looking forward to 2021 where she will move some of her Jungle Music classes up to the next course and her schedule will allow some gaps to take on more classes.
Thousands of parents bring their children to Forte Music classes every week. They love it as much as their kids!
Singing, movement and having fun was just so refreshing after a hard day at school
