What a fantastic way of highlighting the benefits of music education.

Monika Kos, from Channel 7 will host the event and Adam Gilchrist will do the count down to 9.30am.

 The Minister for Education, Dr Elizabeth Constable will introduce Lauren Tarver from Wanneroo SHS, who is one of the co-composers of Ourselves Together. Lauren will describe the fantastic experience of working with the very talented musical group that composed the songs.
