Our Mission

Maria Moon Music is a community charity committed to empowering children—and their families and carers—to develop their musical identity and nurture a “musical brain,” starting in preschool and primary years and welcoming additional needs.

​

Maria Moon Music’s heart is to ensure that music-making belongs to every child and family, building lifelong musical identity. By supporting parents and carers to lead musical experiences at home, in school, and in community settings, we give every child, especially those learning at home or with SEND, a foundation for creative self-expression and wellbeing. Homeschooling should integrate music learning and music making, be simple and easy to deliver. We can help you achieve this remotely or in our community group sessions.

​

Music is a universal language which is essential to life. We help parents and carers to harness its power inspiring connection, engagement and joy.

Empowering Music

Parents, Carers, and Family are the child's first educators and can shape their Musical Identity before  and during formal education.

​

Parents and carers are the centre of a child’s musical journey. We provide tools, guidance, and workshops for families—including those homeschooling—to help them take control of musical learning and identity. Families play, sing, and explore music together, making lasting memories and shaping confident learners for life.

​

  • Resources and workshops for singing and music-making at home.

  • Activities designed for homeschooling families to deepen impact during critical formative years.

  • Tips for families to create their own musical traditions, connecting generations in song and sound.

  • Neurodiverse friendly music activities that connect, engage and stimulate emotions without overwhelm.

Singing is Joyful

Singing is very good for you and bring everyone together! We deliver singing sessions which are educational, engaging and make a positive impact in our wellbeing. The experience of group singing  improves self esteem, lowers anxiety, increases confidence and has an overall positive impact on your mental health because it is an activity that demands being mindful of the present.

The social aspects of Singing are known to reduce isolation, promote a sense of community and wellbeing in all who participate. It's fun , increases our musicality and gives us joy!

We strive to sing folk, traditional, classical and world pieces that are as diverse and inclusive as possible for all who sing with us. 

 

Our team encourages and nurtures singing choir performances from any age group at different stage of our lives and in diverse setting, such as church halls, outdoors or in community spaces.

Singing Across All Ages: Choirs, Musicals, and Self-Expression Sessions

We celebrate singing as a thread running through life, from childhood to adulthood. Our community choirs and musical projects welcome every voice, supporting self-expression, confidence, and positive relationships across all ages and backgrounds. Music can spark a child’s curiosity, imagination, and emotional intelligence. Our programmes encourage children of all backgrounds and abilities to develop the listening, movement, and creative thinking skills that shape a lifelong musical brain.

Safeguarding children and Young People

The safety and wellbeing of our students, parents and staff is paramount. All Maria Moon Music staff, volunteers and crew are qualified caregivers or music teachers who hold a DBS enhanced certificate.  In addition staff will also have a chaperone license, should we require to escort children to and from performances.
