Matariki Performing Arts

✨ Introducing our MPA Spotlight Series ✨
At Matariki Performing Arts, we love celebrating our performers not only for what they achieve with us but for the incredible things they do beyond MPA.
Our Spotlight Series shines a light on the amazing productions, musicals, competitions, performances, community events, and creative opportunities our students are involved in throughout the year.
We are so proud of the dedication, courage, and talent they bring to every stage they step onto. Join us as we celebrate the journeys, achievements, and stories of our incredible MPA whānau. 💜

Fantastic work today Crew & Seniors! 💜
You've definitely put in the work these last 8 weeks and it's showing. The focus, teamwork, and growth have been amazing to watch.
We're getting closer to our next performance and I can't wait to see you all shine on stage! 🌟

Performances are getting closer and the Juniors are looking AWESOME! 🔥✨

We've been drilling, moving, singing, and performing as one team—and let's just say sweat has become a requirement lately!

The hard work is paying off and we can't wait to see these performers shine on stage in just a few weeks. 💜

Minis stealing hearts! 💜
Watching them grow in confidence, creativity, and friendship has been so special. If this is what “falling in love” looks like, then we’re completely in love with this journey. ✨
Performances are getting closer and we can’t wait to see them shine on stage!

Crew & Seniors rehearsal report:
Me: “Let’s do it again.”
Crew & Seniors: “Why?”
Me: “Because I love you.”
Crew & Seniors: “That’s not a reason.”
Fair point, but we did it again anyway…. And again and again 😂 💜

Rehearsal report:
🥵 Sweating: achieved
🎤 Singing while moving: achieved
💃 Dancing non-stop: achieved
😮‍💨 Complaining about being tired: achieved
Safe to say this week's rehearsal was a tough one. We all left sweaty, exhausted, and one step closer to our upcoming performance . 💜✨
