StarJam Vision:
A world in which people with disabilities are respected, encouraged and accepted by their communities
StarJam Mission:
Young Kiwis with disabilities change the way New Zealanders view people who are disabled, Celebrating their unique talents through the power of Music, Dance, and Performance
Star Jam gives young people the opportunity to experience “different doesn’t make you less “How do they do this??
Each week they hold 90 minute workshops, Jammers learn new skills, make friends, grow their confidence, feel inspired and inspire others. And they’re free to just be themselves and have an epic amount of fun.
What does the workshop look like you ask?
• It is for young people with any disability aged between 6 and 25
• There are a maximum of 12 Jammers per workshop
• Weekly workshops involve dancing, singing, drumming or guitar/band
• Workshops are held in the evenings and there are 3 here in North Taranaki
• 90 minutes of fun led by a talented Star Jam Tutor and at least two volunteers
• This is free for all Jammers
So, after reading this would you like to make a real difference to the lives of young people with disabilities and their families? Do you want to be part of an organisation which breaks down walls and contributes to a world in which every person with a disability is respected, encouraged, and celebrated for who they are and who they want to become?
Do you want to see happy tears, proud parents, and amazed audiences? Of course you do! So, whatever your skills, availability, or passions, there’s a volunteer role waiting for you!

He is also performing this Saturday at the Taranaki Symphony Orchestras Student Stars Concert, playing the fabulous Rodrigo Aranjuez Guitar Concerto. Another concert not to be missed (tickets from Ticketek).
Hamish has won many awards and competitions and recently was awarded the NZ Aspiring Guitarist for 2024. He has performed with a number of Chamber Music Groups and with Orchestra Wellington and the NZSO.
At the lunchtime concert Hamish will present a varied programme with something for everyone, whether you enjoy Baroque, Jazz or Rock/Blues and of course classical.
This is a wonderful opportunity to hear one of NZ's top classical guitarists. Koha appreciated.

It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love. Rather than hanging up their hats, many of today’s retirees are redefining this phase by staying active through part-time jobs, volunteering, or even launching new careers.
Living in a retirement village doesn’t necessarily mean you’re done with work either; rather, it offers the opportunity to explore different activities, pursue long-held passions, and discover new interests. In fact, many people find the lifestyle gives them more freedom to stay engaged and active through work they enjoy.
