Rawhiti School (Previously Central New Brighton) --- 11am to 7pm
New Brighton
Spring Music Festival 2015
My name is Raewyn Murray and I'm a local of New Brighton for 50 years now. I'm married to my Irish Souvenir (David) and a mum of 4 very talented girls. My girls are actually 4th Generation on our property. I'm a Photographer and Home Stay. I also work at the beautiful Isaac Theatre Royal.
This is my first time being an Event Organiser and have had a great time doing it. It's been a lot of hard work but it will be worth it. This is a Fundraising event which started as an idea from (Venkata) Sud who manages both Pierside Cafe & Bar and South of India, two great local places in New Brighton. It was his idea to make it a Fundraiser and a Pay it Foward to the community.
Sud said he wanted to do this asked if I would help. I jumped at the chance to do something like this, never done before but thought "give it a go".
From there I just started what any Committee would do and sorted bands, stage, sound etc and here we have it - an outing to support two of our local schools and to bring out community even more closer. What better way than with music.
So there you go. I hope you all have a great time at this event - we plan on doing this as an Annual event for a different school or kindergarten.
Giving back to the Schools,
Giving back to the Community.
