Incursion Music Educators 

Vanessa Lynch | Bach. Education (hons)

Vanessa has a B.Ed (hons) – Bachelor of Education with a major in Music...

Vanessa is an accomplished pianist and flute player and has achieved an ATCL level in performance.

While studying an honours degree in Music Education, with a focus on neural research on children’s intellect and cognitive function, she discovered that music is especially powerful in shaping a child’s interests and abilities in the preschool years. Opening Hive, a creative learning studio for local families, was a natural step in her desire to give children the opportunity to develop the cognitive and musical skills that early childhood music training offers.

Melissa Saunders | Dip. of Early Education & Care

Melissa has a background and qualifications in early childhood teaching and music education...

Before joining the Hive, Melissa worked as an Early Childhood Teacher and Director and also as a Voice Teacher and Choir Director. Melissa’s skills extend to the stage as well, where she has many years of experience in writing, directing and producing musicals and dramatic theatre productions.

She’s also a singer and songwriter – you might just see her wowing audiences at live performances in local venues around Newcastle.

Emily Kingsmill | Bach. Psychology in education

Emily is a pianist, singer and teacher and grew up playing the piano...

Emily completed her degree in Educational Psychology in England and then qualified as a Primary School teacher and Early Childhood educator here in Australia. She is passionate about children learning through the joy of music and is delighted to be putting both her love of music and education together at Hive.

Her two little boys share her love of music, and together they like to spend time exploring and adventuring outdoors, going to the beach, sailing, crafting, baking, plus singing, dancing and making music!
