This will be my final newsletter, as I wrap up my time at Lewis Eady Music School after four rewarding years. It has been a privilege to work with such a dedicated and talented community of tutors and students.

It has been a pleasure to be a part of your musical journey this year. A highlight of this term (and this year!) for me has been the end-of-year concerts at our partner schools – a valuable opportunity which was sadly cancelled for the past two years due to COVID restrictions. It was so heartwarming to see our students bravely perform in front of their whānau and friends and share their musical progress. READ MORE >
Term 4 always comes around too soon. I hope you all enjoyed the term break and are ready for the final term of 2022.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for doing your part to protect each other as we navigated life in COVID. Face masks have played a crucial role in keeping our communities safe – and we have seen some great colours and designs over the last few years! But nothing can beat face-to-face, mask-less interaction, and we can only do that when we are all well.
Welcome to Term 3. I hope you all had a restful break and enjoying all that Term 3 has to offer.
Over the break, we held our July Songwriting Workshop with tutors Adam Thorndyke and Kane Chong. Seven budding songwriters came together for two days of intensive and collaborative work, culminating in a performance for friends and family in the Lewis Eady Guitar Showroom. After so many years of cancellations and postponements, we were thrilled to revive our Holiday Programme offering and look forward to many more Songwriting Workshops in the future.
We hope you had a wonderful break and are looking forward to another jam-packed term.
Our team of tutors simply love sharing their musical knowledge with their students each week. Music is our passion and we are grateful to be a part of your musical journey.
A warm welcome to all our new and returning students! I hope you all enjoyed the summer break and are looking forward to an invigorating term* of music-making with Lewis Eady Music School.

Being able to make music with your family every week has certainly helped lift spirits during a challenging year for many. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our phenomenal admin team (Cheryl, Gillian, Leah) and tutors for going above and beyond their call of duty – truly a tremendous team effort.
Thank you for your unwavering support of our music programmes over these challenging past few months. Whilst we were incredibly grateful to be able to connect with your whānau through online lessons, it simply cannot compare to the connection and engagement that in-person lessons provide.
Welcome to Term 3! I hope you have enjoyed your well-deserved breaks and are looking forward to another energizing term of music-making.
What a whirlwind beginning to the year! Thank you for your kindness and understanding as we navigated through the Alert Level changes in February and March. Our team worked hard behind the scenes to ensure 'business as usual' despite the unexpected interruptions.
