Hi! Thanks for visiting Christ Church United Methodist’s website. My name is Noel Hardman. I came to
Christ
Church in July 2005 as the Music Assistant. Prior to my arrival at CCUM, I was employed by Kanawha County Schools for 8 years as an Elementary Itinerant Music Specialist. My degee is from
Alderson-Broaddus College in Music Education K-12 with an emphasis in voice.
I'm glad your interested in learning more about the Children's Music Ministry here at CCUM. Let me tell you what we offer:
Jubilate! Choir
Jubilate! Choir provides children with an opportunity to learn the joys of praising God through singing. This program uses a system of graded choirs which gives the singers an oppurtunity to develop the art of Christian leadership through music. age group K-5
Jubilate! Arts
Jubilate! Arts is an after-school arts program that meets once a week for 11 weeks. Children experience music and art with Fine Arts specialists Brian Vannoy, Noel Hardman and Jane Ann Hammett. age group K-5
Musikgarten
Musikgarten is the preeminent early childhood music education company. Children are innately drawn to music. And why shouldn’t they be? They have been listening to the rhythm and melody of their mother’s voice since the fourth month in utero. Come and play with your baby while making music. age group 0-5
Renaissance Arts Camp
This weeklong camp at CCUM is offered in the summer. Take a trip to another place and experience it through music, art and movement. Our theme in '08 is Africa. age group K-5
Nature Camp
This week long camp involves the outdoors. We will explore many things in nature including bugs, trees, water, horses, fish and many other fun and slimy things. Do you like to get dirty? Do you like to get wet? Do you like to have fun? Then this camp is for you!
I'm having a GREAT time working at Christ Church. The children who come through CCUM are wonderful and make my job so much fun! Christ
Church has a very child-friendly atmosphere. The music program offers so much for young children. Come and visit us and experience it for yourself!
