Blenheim Jazz Festival
The Blenheim jazz trip has been a regular fixture on the WHS calendar for a long time and is an excellent opportunity for the jazz musicians. Involving around 15 schools and more than 20 acts, the Blenheim events also includes performances to the public, a masterclass, competition and the opportunity to observe other schools. This is one of the best learning experiences and we have been fortunate to achieve some great results over the past few years. Teachers in Charge: Alison Price and Natasha Kumar Queenstown Jazz Festival The Queenstown Jazz festival is another opportunity for our jazz bands to perform and is one of the few times where we get to play in front of our local community. Teachers in Charge: Alison Price and Natasha Kumar Invercargill Jazz Festival The Invercargill jazzfest has been a regular fixture for our jazz combo over many years as we compete against other bands around the region. A great event to round off the jazz year. Teachers in Charge: Alison Price and Natasha Kumar Junior Jazz Band The junior jazz group was reinstated in 2018 and provides the basic skills for students who want to progress into the senior band. It operates at one break a week and brings together students from all levels of playing in Years 9/10. Teacher in Charge: Natasha Kumar |
