SUMMARY:Wellington Orchestra Festival 2023
DESCRIPTION:A day of orchestral rehearsal and performance for Primary and Intermediate-aged students who can read music and play an instrument. \nWe have six pieces arranged by Richard Oswin\, ranging from classical favourites to film scores and pop hits. \nThis is an ideal opportunity for students who practice mostly on their own to join other students and make music in one big ensemble. The technical difficulty of the music is suitable for students in their second or third year of learning. Along with the four orchestra sections\, there are parts for drum kit\, hand percussion\, guitar\, bass\, keyboard\, Orff xylophone and recorders. Students can work on their parts with instrumental tutors leading up to the day\, nearly prepared to play up to 6 pieces. Schools can also use the repertoire to play in their own ensemble during the year. \nThis year we will be conducted by Mike Ashton. The day begins with a massed rehearsal\, followed by sectionals and finishes with a concert of the six pieces. The concert will also include a guest performance from musicians from Orchestra Wellington. \nSchools registered for WOF will also get the opportunity to take part in Orchestra Wellington’s Education in Schools Programme and the Big Bash – musicians from Orchestra Wellington will come to your school to help prepare your students! A separate schedule will be sent out so that schools can sign up for these workshops over Term 2. \nContact Joanna Calvert if you have any questions.

This allows MEFA participants the options of attending and supporting their performance session\, and also receive valuable tuition and support from our great mentors in workshops at the opposite part of the day. \n\nAwards \nEvery ensemble performing receives a Platinum\, Gold or Silver participation certificate along with a director’s video containing the adjudicators voice over. MEFA is primarily a participation event\, so no matter your ensembles skill set\, or repertoire\, awards are given on key criteria that encompass all aspects of an ensemble. \n\nEvening Concert Performances \nOn the evenings of the festival we have fantastic gala concerts with a combination of professional players\, ensembles and invited MEFA participants. \n\n*Send questions and registrations to: education@musicworks.co.nz \n*Register here

SUMMARY:Kodály Teacher Training - Summer School
DESCRIPTION:Five days of exciting music making and learning\, led by international experts\, Maree Henessey and Rosalie Scott\, inspired by the Kodály approach to music making and learning – along with conducting with local choral expert\, Andrew Withington\, and evening sessions from local musicians\, to widen our practice\, including Kapa Haka\, West African drumming and more.\n \nThis summer we are offering an overview of the approach\, that gives a taster of the level training\, with examples of how the approach can be used throughout a child’s school years from primary to upper secondary. Participants will study musicianship\, methodology\, conducting and choir and can enter at any level of musicianship and conducting\, from beginner to advanced. \nAfter the five days\, participants are welcome to enrol in an online mentorship programme\, led by Maree and Rosalie\, and Ōtautahi members will also have local mentoring available. The mentorship programme will also be available to people who have completed at least one level of Kodály training\, through any accredited provider. \nThere are part time streams and a full time stream and options suitable for classroom teachers with limited musical experience as well as for music major graduates and musicians with no teaching experience. Choir leaders can opt to just attend musicianship\, conducting and choir or attend the full programme. \nScholarships available for recent music performance graduates\, and lived experience cultural experts. \nAbout the Kodály approach \n\nThe Kodály approach is holistic and accessible\, for teachers who are passionate about helping all their students become resilient learners and lifelong musicians. \n​When music is taught or learned using Kodály’s approach\, skills vital to advanced music making such as “inner hearing”\, rhythmic co-ordination and harmonic hearing are strongly developed at an early stage. \n​In a well researched pedagogical sequence\, within a framework of folk songs and singing games\, students learn through doing\, playing and singing. Musical elements are experienced before being named and once learned are practised\, and thoroughly understood before new elements are added. \n​Music making is at the centre\, and classes are joyful\, stimulating and fun. \n​Teachers trained in the Kodály approach are challenged to continually improve their own musicianship and teaching practise. They develop skills in long and short term planning with learners at the centre. \n​One of the most exciting parts of embarking on this journey is the opportunity to develop your own musicianship. The course meets the needs of beginner to advanced musicians. \n​The training is rigorous yet completely non competitive. Teacher training is joyful\, challenging\, liberating\, musical\, fun and transformative.

She is Pākehā and in October 2022\, made the leap to self-employment. The primary focus of her work is working alongside communities and organisations as they seek to both respond well and prevent all forms of sexual harm including sexual harassment in workplaces and child sexual abuse. \nImmediately prior to self-employment life\, Mel worked at the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF). Initially this was as one of their small team of regionally based Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Advisors (SAPRAs) and then as the Manager for the SAPRAs. \nPrior to the NZDF Mel worked for the most part in NGOs who have a focus on the response to sexual harm\, including WellStop and the Wellington Sexual Abuse HELP Foundation. \nShe enjoys being able to take prior learning and adapt that in order to be able to support  organisations which have taken on the challenge of creating safer and respectful environments. \n  \nRachel Harrison (she/they) \nRachel Harrison comes from the Coromandel Peninsula and currently lives in Te Whanganui a Tara (Wellington) and works with organisations and communities across Aotearoa to help prevent sexual harassment\, sexual violence\, domestic violence and child abuse. \nRachel believes that harassment\, violence and abuse are preventable and that the best solutions are tailored to each specific community and workplace\, making use of their strengths and minimising specific risk factors. \nRachel started at Auckland Rape Crisis in the 1990’s\, and since then has worked at Netsafe\, the Hauraki Family Violence Network and Child Abuse Prevention Services Hauraki. She is now self-employed and works with a range of public and private sector organisations including the New Zealand Defence Force\, New Zealand Rugby\, the screen sector\, performance sector and music community as they work toward making their communities safe and free from harassment and abuse. \n

The Board has been working hard on this with the assistance of Maude and Miller and is asking the membership to adopt the new constitution at the next AGM. \nThe draft constitution was first presented to the membership at last year’s AGM\, and feedback was received. Another draft version was presented at the Special General Meeting in Oct 2023\, where more thorough feedback was sought. After consultation with the membership and advice from lawyers\, I will put forward the following motion: \nI propose that the MENZA membership adopt the new Constitution presented to the membership on the 15th of June\, 2024. \nPlease find a copy of the constitution to have a read-through. \nI would also like to propose a change to our membership fees. Unfortunately\, there are costs involved in running an organisation like MENZA. Although the board tries to seek funding from other external sources\, we also heavily rely on membership fees.
