COMPOSED BY
Eunice Hicks
Eunice Hicks is a music teacher and mother of four, living south of Perth, Western Australia. She completed her Bachelor of Music at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in 2001, then moved with her pilot/musician husband to the Northern Territory where they raised four children and played in the Darwin Symphony Orchestra.
Bringing nature to life through song was a joy for Eunice and after moving down to Perth, other native animals were celebrated, like quokka, quenda and numbat.
Her primary school students have fallen in love with the precious numbat through her ‘Numbat Child’ song, written in hopes of the younger generation one day picking up the conservation baton.​
