Te Awakairangi Music Movement came about from conversations around how much music education children received in mainstream NZ primary schools and Early Childhood Education Centres.
Who has access to music education?
Do our teachers have the confidence, the training and the motivation to teach music as part of their weekly curriculum?
Inspired by the work of Dr. Anita Collins, Te Awakairangi Music Movement aims to promote music education in our schools for all children. We will do this through running workshops, mentoring and producing accessible, high quality resources for use in the everyday New Zealand classroom.
