Know a kid/young person who loves singing?

Karen Boyce from Major Minors Children's Choir

Our growing choir turns five this year and is looking for new members to join the fun. We rehearse in Upper Hutt and work with children 4+ through to teens.There are no auditions to join the Major Minors and there are 5 year long scholarships currently available.

Our first rehearsal for 2017 is on Sunday 29 January at The Spot, in Upper Hutt.

Behind the scenes are qualified musicians who run the choir voluntarily and have lots of experience working with developing voices.

We also have an auditioned extension group for more musically experienced/capable singers - The Harmonic Minors. This group performs on their own, gives vocal assistance to the Major Minors and provides leadership opportunities working with the younger children. Auditions are being held on Sunday 29 January at 4pm after the Major Minors rehearsal

Outdoor performances are planned for local destinations this year and we will be defending the Challenge Cup in the under 18 Choir section of the Hutt Valley Performing Arts Competitions in July....again! Concerts are also planned locally and further afield.

For more details check out majorminors.instantencore.com , email us on hvkidschoir@gmail.com or give us a call.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
