Founded in 1997, Wayfarers Australia has toured the world extensively, bringing choral, recorder and orchestral music to children in Steiner schools. Tours have included Steiner schools in India, Taiwan, China, the UK, Europe and New Zealand.

The Wayfarers vision has always been to inspire a lifelong love of choral and instrumental music in children, because we know that the experience can transform people and communities. A room full of voices singing in harmony creates something powerful - connection, listening, joy, and a sense of belonging. Many of today's Wayfarer workshop leaders were themselves participants in workshops as children who were inspired by the life-changing choral experiences.

This tour, comprised of a small team of long-standing Wayfarers, continues the group's tireless efforts. We will be offering music workshops to Steiner schools and communities around the Northern Rivers - with the purpose of strengthening their existing music programs, and inspiring further appreciation of music in students. In addition to our workshops, we will also share the joy of choral singing through our performance series in schools and public venues.

Wayfarers tours over the years have proven that singing is far more than performance - it is often a transcendent experience that builds community and connects cultures. The reciprocal generosity of all the communities who have hosted us has made each of these tours possible. Many choirs around Australia and internationally have been touched by this tradition of gatherings, performance, workshops, and shared song. Our tour aims to extend that spirit to the next generation of singers here in the Northern Rivers.
