About Us

Julie Logan Music

Julie Logan Music is a unique Kodaly-based program, where babies and children are guided by teachers who have specialised in extensive post-graduate study in Early Childhood Music Education.

This means that we’re highly qualified, passionate experts who have years of musical experience in teaching little ones!  You’ll love the way we nurture a passion for music in babies and kids, connecting your whole family in a way that’s fun, enjoyable and active.

All our group teachers are parents themselves, so we know what it’s like to have great days with your baby, and other times when things aren’t so great.

Since 2002, we’ve been growing musical families throughout Newcastle and the Hunter region, combining the best of Kodaly expertise with time-honoured skills for proven results. Many of our students have successfully gained places in performing arts and academic school programs, as well as auditioning successfully for vocal and instrumental performances.

We’d love you to join our music family!

We have attended the music groups with all 3 of our children, and would really recommend it!
It’s a lovely environment and is great for an introduction to singing and musical instruments.
Julie is very friendly and welcoming.

Julie Logan
Founder
Julie established Julie Logan Music in Newcastle in 2001, a Nationally Accredited Do-re-mi for children research-based program for children 0-8 years. Specialist teachers Nationally Accredited with the Kodaly Music Institute of Australia were selected because of their extensive early childhood music education training and experience, they were able to adapt lessons to meet the individual needs and interests of each group of children. Julie provided children with a unique way of exploring beat, rhythm, melody and dynamics across a variety of music styles, while having fun singing, dancing and playing instruments.

Administration Support
Millie worked in Administration/Marketing at the Family Action Centre, University of Newcastle for 16 years. In January 2015 she took on the role of Administration Manager for Julie Logan Music. A mum of four, three human and one four-legged goldie, life is never boring.  She’s happiest in the kitchen baking sweet treats :P, spending time with family and friends, at the beach with a good cuppa, walking the dog, gardening, reading or watching the odd suspense thriller/soppy romance.  Raising funds for melanoma research is her passion and she makes the trek north every November with family and friends to support Smiling for Smiddy at the Noosa Triathalon. 

We’re highly qualified, passionate experts who have years of musical experience in teaching little ones! You’ll love the way we nurture a passion for music in babies and kids, connecting your whole family in a way that’s fun, enjoyable and active.
