This year the Malaghan Institute of Medical Research commenced their investigation into new potential vaccines for breast cancer.

Over the next two years they will be utilising a grant worth up to $248,900 from the Health Research Council (HRC), Breast Cancer Cure and Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.

With growing evidence that vaccines can positively harness or promote our own body’s responses, research such as this, really does hold hope for better outcomes for people with cancer, and a number of other conditions.

We are proud to support these champions in bettering the lives of all cancer victims!

Hi neighbours! My name is Larissa King and I have been teaching singing and songwriting and directing choirs in schools since completing my bachelor of music in 2012.
I have worked with ages 5 - Adult in primary schools, high schools and tertiary institutes around Auckland and Tauranga.

I have recently moved to Wellington and will be running Private lessons from a studio in Brooklyn.

I teach contemporary vocals using the Estill vocal technique which is fun, practical and sees amazing results. I also run a 2-term long beginner songwriting course for children aged 9 and over where we break down and learn what makes a great song (hooks, melody, lyrics writing, guitar, percussion, recording) and your child comes away with a recorded demo of the song we write over the course. (some singing experience required).

If you are at all interested in grabbing a slot for either singing or songwriting or have any general questions - Please send me a message!
