In the heart of coal mining country in the NSW Hunter Valley is a new school with a difference.
The motto of the Richard Gill School at Muswellbrook is through music and movement let us flourish and it aims to prepare the sons and daughters of mining engineers and coal mine workers for a changing world.
The school is the brainchild of Richard Gill, the late Australian conductor, esteemed in the arts community, who was passionate about music and its ability to enhance broader learning and liberate the mind.
