Two Wgtn students in national piano competition
Two Wellington residents have been selected to participate in a nationwide classical piano
competition.
The NZ Junior Piano Competition (NZJPC) is a biennial national competition for pre-tertiary pianists in New Zealand, competing for a total prize pool of over $4,000. NZJPC received over 40 entries this year from across New Zealand. Only 16 pianists aged between 10 to 18 were selected as semi-finalists, including Wellington College student, Zhe Ning Chin and St Patrick's College student, Otis Prescott-Mason.
The NZ Junior Piano Competition is presented by the Lewis Eady Charitable Trust and will take place on 1-5 October at Lewis Eady in Auckland, the home of Steinway pianos in New Zealand.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
