How wonderful it was to have Susie and Phil perform for our students! The students sang rounds and songs, role played, performed on percussion instruments, moved and danced. It was lovely to see the students laugh and smile through the concert. Such a joyous celebration of music! Thank you, Susie and Phil! Thanks, Hayley Hayley Blakiston Head of Junior School Music

Thank you Susie and Phil, I thoroughly enjoyed watching you both in action again. My students are really enjoying Desmond the Dinosaur at the moment – I look forward to the tips on classroom management of getting little ones onto the instruments in your Early Childhood courses. I am so inspired by you both and have used many of your songs over the years with much success and joy! Thank.
Susie and Phil, I would like to say to you both…….. THANK YOU. I am a primary school music teacher, I have all your books and I use your repertoire constantly. The children love the songs and activities. You both do GREAT WORK in Music Education.
“Susie and Phil MUST be congratulated on their ability to be so vibrant and entertaining to other music people. They obviously love their life and are an inspiration to all people around them.We all learnt so much and especially lots of new ways to inspire our students.” – Kerry Browning, Music Teacher, Tasmania.

“Hi Susie and Phil, I don’t believe we’ve ever met, but I just wanted to say thank you for your music. I love singing, and when I was in primary school my mother (Martina Golding, who is a primary school music teacher) had a CD of your songs that I loved! So much so that when I was twelve years old I insisted to our music teacher Pauline Greaves that.
“I would just also like to say, your music classes have made my placement experience so worthwhile. There were many situations where the staff in my room asked me to run group time and sing songs with the children, and with my confidence levels already peaking from your classes, I found this task extremely easy and enjoyable. I was able to demonstrate new dance moves and introduce new songs to.
“And I just have to say Susie – that you and Phil are gurus to me! I think you both deserve Australian of the Year titles for all you have contributed to the cause of music in Australia (and beyond), and if it wasn’t for your entrepreneurial visions and production of your resources, our country would be a much poorer place. You have both contributed an amazing music legacy, and.
“The Welcome to Music Program delivered at our Country Areas Program teachers’ workshop was outstanding. Our teachers gained practical and valuable knowledge and skills which were easily transferred to the classroom. I would highly recommend this program for all preschool to primary teachers who are looking to enhance their music program. We look forward to working with Phil in future Northern CAP initiatives.”
