Connectivity for Music Education
Veolia Wi-fi upgrade grant of $15,000
Hume Conservatorium gets a significant WI-FI boost thanks to Veolia Mulwaree Trust
The 120-year-old building at the corner of Bourke and Verner Streets has received an essential wi-fi upgrade across the three heritage buildings thanks to a grant from the Veolia Mulwaree Trust.
The wi-fi upgrade will allow for more innovative music education programs using our tech labs for composition and musicianship and allow teaching staff and students to access high-speed wi-fi while in the building.
“Following the implementation of the upgrade Hume Conservatorium will be able to invest in and implement new teaching aids and more helpful programs for students.” commented George Brenan, “It’s important that music education remains relevant to young people while teaching the core elements of music. Having better wi-fi throughout the building will enhance the teaching and learning opportunities for young people and allow the building and spaces to remain usable and relevant.”
The grant will provide internet connectivity throughout the creative precinct and will allow access to online programs and support for teaching staff to deliver richer music education programs and improved support for student learning. This will enhance individual music lessons through improved access to resources for teachers and increased communications with parents. Increased communication channels will give parents the support they need to help students engage in practice.
This project will increase access to high-speed internet and improve our performance spaces. These capabilities will allow contemporary teaching and performance practices – both for the Conservatorium and for community users.
