Morning tea and talent at Rawhiti ;-)

Megan from Rawhiti Estate

Below is a snippet that was in last week’s NZ Herald about a National schools Barbershop Quartet – these young folk won by a landslide! And I am so excited to have them come into Rawhiti to entertain us. I hope you can join us in the Atrium for some morning tea and talent.
When: Wednesday 16th Oct
Where: The Atrium
Time: 10 am

Making fun of their teachers saw a South Auckland school barbershop quartet take out top prize at this year's Stand Up, Stand Out competition. Aorere College's What the Fourth won the group's vocal section of the annual event, with entertaining observations about some of their teachers.

South Auckland schools dominated the winners' circle of the annual event, which gives young performers the chance to take the first steps down the path toward an entertaining career.

What the Fourth members were also part of the band Pocket-8 who came runners-up to Tangaroa College's C6 in the best band category while singer Andrew Faiai, competed in the solo instrumental category. This was won by Risnm Tangianau, the first ever competitor from a private training establishment, who stole the show playing guitar, drums and a loop pedal.
