Lead Mentor

Liz Fahlbusch is the Music and Performing Arts teacher at Kapunda Primary School in regional South Australia, and has been a Primary Music Specialist for most of her teaching career. She has taught SA Primary Schools Festival of Music Choirs for more than twenty years and is the co-conductor of KaDenCe (the Kapunda and Districts Choir).

Liz plays the recorder with the South Australian Society of Recorder Players (SRP SA inc.) and was a handbell ringer with Synergy Handbell Ensemble for ten years.

Liz became interested in Music in Me after hearing Richard Gill speak about the program and his vision for music education in Australia. She felt that it was something she wanted to contribute to. Liz has been a mentor with the program for six years and has thoroughly enjoyed sharing her love of music with other teachers. She firmly believes in the numerous benefits of music, especially for health and well being, and feels privileged to have witnessed first-hand the significant positive outcomes for students, teachers and school communities after music was introduced through Music in Me.
