Musicnet Summary to 14th Feb 2020

Kia ora tātou

In the last week I’ve had conversations with teachers about: Lessons starting, instrument demonstration nights, finding new teachers for roll increases, juggling rooming conflicts, ordering more stationary, learning a new student management software system, finding out where the secret staff toilet is, the best coffee closest to a new school. Some of you have changed jobs, or taken on new positions. I encourage all of you to be gentle on yourselves in these first few weeks and not try to change everything.
