Congratulations to all of our pupils who recently completed their NZ Modern School of Music Practical Exams! 🎶👏
We know how much work goes into preparing for an exam, and we are very proud of everyone who took part.
Certificates are not far away and will be with teachers soon. We look forward to these being presented in the near future.

Well done again to all involved!

Our Practical Exams start today! 🎵

It can be a nervous but very rewarding time for our pupils, who have put so much time and effort into preparing for their exams.

We wish all our pupils taking part the very best — enjoy the experience and be proud of everything you’ve achieved! 🎹

Good luck everyone!

Have more than one budding musician in the family? 🎵

Our latest article looks at how to manage siblings who are both learning an instrument — from keeping practice positive to supporting each child’s musical journey.

A great read for musical families!

One of the questions we're often asked by parents is whether it's a good idea for brothers or sisters to learn the same instrument. Will they encourage each other, or will it simply lead to constant comparisons? The short answer is that it can be one of the best decisions a family makes. At NZ
