FREE recorder lessons for adults
Have you always wanted to learn to play an instrument but never had the time or money?
Thought recorders were only for children?
Come along to the newly established Napier Tech Recorder Group on Friday mornings 11am - 11.45am and give it a go. Only for adults, this group is for complete beginners, no musical knowledge needed. Bring a recorder and a folder for your music and drag a friend along too.
The tutor, Teresa Cuthbert is a primary school trained teacher with 26 years teaching experience in the classroom. Now, semi-retired she is following her passion for teaching music. Teresa teaches music at Napier Central School 2 days a week, teaches over 25 students instrumental lessons, and conducts the Napier Tech Junior Band and the HB Community Orchestra.
The group will start on Friday 28 February at the Napier Tech Band room at Whitmore Park, Barker Road, Napier.
The goals of the group are:
To learn to read music
To learn the notes on the recorder
To play music together
To have the opportunity to progress onto another instrument in the future (brass, woodwind)
Please get in touch to register your interest.

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!


For a bit of fun, neighbours.
Have a good think about it, and let us know...
If you could invent one piece of technology to make life easier, what would it be?
Comment below with what you think would be a handy new invention - it may even already exist!
