Music

Participation in music is encouraged and students can enjoy fully immersing themselves in the friendships and skills that they develop through this involvement in our fully equipped music studio and band room facilities.

Music students in Years 10-13 receive small group tuition in a range of instruments. Students are encouraged to perform within the school and the wider community, as well as enter competitions such as Rockquest or Smokefree Tangata Beats. 

 Years 7-9 experience our music department through 8-10 week rotations where they get to try out playing instruments, songwriting, music technology and music theory.


School Productions

Our 2024 schol production of  Moana was a great success. The talented Wairoa College cast included 24 students from Years 7-12, and the show was well received by our local community. You're welcome!

In 2026, we joined Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins in MADAGASCAR Jr.  

All students are encouraged to join after school performance and music opportunities such as productions, bands and choir.
