"We must embrace a vision of music education that is child centred and includes disciplines such as music therapy.”

Extract from an address to Music Manifesto Conference 18th May 2005 by Marc Jaffrey, National Music Manifesto Champion, after observing a music therapy session at RCH

Some comments on the Music Therapy Service........

As well as having an opportunity to express their feelings, children having music therapy develop self esteem and social skills such as listening, turn taking and appropriate communication. All of this can transpose to the classroom and help enhance their learning experience'.
