Baha’is see children as the most precious treasure a community can possess. Our future depends on this next generation and how they develop their values and understanding of themselves and the world. Storytelling, as one of the oldest forms of art, is a powerful way to instil values that Baha’is promote.

Baha’is recognise storytelling as an instrument that evokes one’s imagination, illustrates how to apply principles and spiritual qualities, and also introduces new words and complex ideas into a child’s language.

The Peoples’ Choir is for everybody. It is a social and cultural opportunity for all people. It is a place where we aim to build self esteem and deliver a program that’s creative and manageable for people of all ages and from all socio- economic groups. We welcome and include individuals of all ages, abilities, nationalities and religions. Our primary activity is singing and the joy of music, but we encourage inclusion and community spirit. The Choir meets at Stonnington Uniting Church, Ewing Memorial Hall, 59 Burke Road, East Malvern 3145 every Tuesday at 7pm to 8.30pm.

There is something for everyone to enjoy.

Stage Left is one of Melbourne's leading Performing Arts Schools and has been training and creating performance opportunities for young people since 2006. At Stage Left, your child can learn acting, singing, and dancing all at the one venue under the guidance of industry professionals who are experienced teachers and performers. While Stage Left does cater for students with stars in their eyes with current students and graduates appearing in professional musicals, TV and film we believe the skills developed through our classes are skills for life not just for the stage. The self confidence, poise and self- awareness they develop will last long after the show is over.

Stage Left caters for students aged 4-16 and has venues in: East Malvern, Glen Iris, Camberwell, Hampton and Rowville. For further information visit www.stageleft.com.au
