About Alice

Alice Csabi is a dynamic and inclusive Performing Arts Teacher.

Alice has spent years working as a Classroom, Instrumental and Performing Arts Teacher across multiple settings within Victoria and the remote Northern Territory. She discovered Orff-Schulwerk as part of her university degree, and upon returning to Victoria from the territory, she joined the VOSA committee. Since then, she has attended various professional development sessions across Australia – most recently Doug Goodkin’s Jazz Course in NSW.

She has always had a passion for incorporating Indigenous perspectives within the classroom and strives to ensure that it is done in a respectful and culturally appropriate manner. Alice worked closely with elders in Lajamanu and Ampilatwatja and is currently the Marrung Lead at Kallista Primary School.

Kallista Primary School is currently collaborating with Murrundindi the Ngurungaeta (Head Man) and Elder of the Wurundjeri tribe as well as his son Pallyan, to implement a Wurundjeri/Woi Wurrung Language Program within the school. With permission, Alice reinforces the teaching of language through Orff-inspired Performing Arts lessons incorporating Music, Dance and Drama.

Alice believes that every child should have access to a rich music and movement program that encourages students to embrace their uniqueness and develops their confidence and creativity. Her skills and knowledge within the Inclusive Education space allows her to successfully support all students to engage and access The Arts. Additionally, Alice volunteers her time as the Musical Director for Whitehorse Showtime – a Scout and Guide Musical experience.
