As many families are aware, we launched our Itinerant music programme in Term 3 on our Lincoln Road site, in conjunction with The Singing Studio and We Are Loud Music Studio.
The launch has been an incredible success, and demand has outweighed our offering. Launching a new programme always brings challenges, but we can confirm it has been relatively smooth, thanks to having such professional staff and wonderful students!
It has been so lovely to hear music through the walls during lessons and literally hear our students’ achievements as they learn. Students arriving with their instruments and the general buzz around lesson times has been a fun experience for all. They have shown fantastic independence and confidence by taking themselves to lessons, and we commend them for how responsibly they are managing their lessons, keeping up to date with their studies, and taking care of the instruments.
Term 4 plans
We are now looking to Term 4, and would love to hear from current families looking to continue, as well as anyone interested in taking up available spaces that may open up.
Due to space limitations, timetable logistics, and travel, lessons will remain at our Lincoln Road site for Year 7 and 8 students only for Term 4. We will certainly look to expand to the remaining year groups next year when we are all on the same site, which will open up many great opportunities for all our students.
Instruments on offer, in both one to one and small groups of three
- Singing and vocals
- Drumming
- Violin
- Ukulele
- Piano
- Guitar
- Bass
Enrolments and enquiries
For Year 7 and 8 families wanting to continue, start in Term 4, or just get more information, please email Miss MacKinnon at kmackinnon@nwcollege.school.nz as we will be working on next term’s timetables shortly.
Again, well done to all our students for a fantastic term of musical milestones. We look forward to an even greater Term 4!
