Why should your child
​Join  Beat 4 Peace?

  1. RESPECT – After being given a drum and allowed to freely express themselves, children learn to trust and follow the person who is capable of orchestrating their collective noise. They are equipped to identify and embrace authority.
  2. SELF CONTROL – Even though they have freedom, the children learn that it is equally important to know when to stop, as it is to know when to play. They realize that they have the ability to impact their environment positively or negatively.
  3. LISTENING – Once they are able to control their actions, children can begin to hear the differences and similarities of sounds. They become aware of their place within the larger group and it gives them a sense of belonging.
  4. SHARING – Now that they can hear what is happening around them, children enjoy creating with others and trying new ideas. They find a way to connect.
  5. COOPERATION – When they are satisfied with their place in the sound, children start to communicate and encourage the input of others. They feel empowered because their contribution is valued.
  6. CONFIDENCE- Since they can recognize the common rhythm within the group, children are more comfortable formulating new ideas to offer. They trust themselves more.
  7. EXPRESSION – Because they feel self-assured, children will not restrict their response to the pulsing beat. They develop an impulse to bring out their hidden talents.
  8. CREATIVITY – Knowing the are free to explore the rhythm, children show their ability to be spontaneous with the experience. They are able to react and adapt to different situations.


Beat 4 Peace will meet weekly from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m. on Thursdays, from October 4 to May 2.
​

Beat 4 Peace is open to any Hamilton/SOTA I student who is in grade 3, 4, or 5.
