What the recipients are saying:
From Clare Sullivan (vocal student)–
“I received my Certificate for my Grade VIII Trinity College exam the other day and realised that although I thanked you by email, I had never written formally to thank you for your scholarship towards my singing tuition last year. ….. Without this scholarship, funding my voice lessons and exam would have proved very difficult.”
“I will be studying Health Science at Otago University this year and although I am not studying singing, I will continue to sing at any opportunity.”
From Amanda Stone
Thank you very much for the grant towards my costs for my week in the New Zealand Secondary Schools Symphony Orchestra.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Christchurch, and it was an experience I’ll never forget. It was great to be able to be billeted with a host family and make lots of new friends, and playing in such a huge orchestra made up of people my age was really fun and I learned a lot.
The grant was much appreciated so thank you very much for your assistance in getting me to this orchestral event.
From Sarah Stark (mother of Quentin)
Hi there,
Thank you so much for the generous grant supporting Quentin on his musical journey. As a family we are very grateful to you for your support, it's a real blessing to us.
Quentin says "Thank you for your gift. I feel very happy because I LOVE music, particularly the piano. I'm sure I will have lots of fun going to Suzuki Summer Camp. I've never been able to go before."
From Rhiannon Gwyther
Thank you so much for the money. It makes sitting the exams now possible. Without your help over the last three years I would not be at the stage I am now. I'm really grateful.
