Kia ora tātou
The MENZA AGM is being held in Auckland on the 19th June, at Hobsonville Point Secondary School. It’s a great chance to not only attend the workshops beforehand, network and attend the AGM, but also to check out the innovative spaces at the relatively new school. We’ll stream it to Zoom as well for those who can’t make it physically. The link will be sent to members via email, so it’s a good time to check your annual membership is up to date, and your email is current. If you haven’t received an E-Notes newsletter in the last few months then email Admin@menza.co.nz to renew/update your email address. MENZA is run as a charity by volunteers just like you, to support music education around New Zealand. It would be great to have a large attendance in-person and online.
