DAVINA

Davina brings to the Fiddlesticks team ten years of experience teaching in primary schools local to Baw Baw Shire. After moving to Neerim South from the suburbs in 2011, Davina with her husband and their growing family of boys built a little house on a piece of paradise and are proud to call this incredible corner of the world home.

She has a great love for community, families and friendships and the aspect of helping everyone find their village to support and nurture each other. You may have met Davina in the past coordinating a music and movement playgroup in Neerim South and more recently building a playgroup community at Buln Buln Primary.

Davina especially has a passion in her teaching for language development, learning through play and exploring how music supports these areas. She especially loves working with puppets and the freedom it brings children in speech and expression.

In a spare moment you will find Davina tending her vegetable patch, baking something delicious or cruising around the ballroom dance floor.

MEET JAYNE

hello Friends

I’m Jayne - Director of Fiddlesticks and Conductor of Melodious Fun!

Fiddlesticks came about during a deep and difficult time in my life.
When I needed a Village most, I built one.
A gathering place for like-hearted families.
A love of music was just the thing to bring us all together.
The power of belonging, especially for young families, is a cornerstone of the Fiddlesticks philosophy. Not just for the Children, but for us Parents, Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles. It’s not easy raising little ones whilst navigating the many challenges life brings, and I don’t want anyone to feel they’re doing it alone. Fiddlesticks is my way of supporting parents using music education.

I grew up playing Violin (and have taught it for 25 years now! Yikes!) and attended the Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne.

As well as running Fiddlesticks, I’m also Concert Master of the Gippsland Symphony Orchestra.

Teaching music is my jam. But community is the beat that makes it all make sense. I have a passion for growing the creative arts in our corner of the world. I’ve seen the way they transform and enhance lives, and I’m harnessing that magic in our little studio in the streets of Warragul.

I bring my inner child to every Fiddlesticks class, and I hope to meet yours too!
