There is an outstanding amount to celebrate in the performing arts learning areas at present. It would be great if you could make it along to support our talented students at one of the National Finals; Smokefree Tangata Beats or Smokefree RockQuest as listed below. Or perhaps you could spread the word about the REWA All Stars Give A Little page and support their fundraising effort.
