The Seventeenth Annual Akaroa Festival took place in January with Students and visitors all enjoying the glorious weather, which was a pleasant environment in which to study and enjoy the music. 

A talented young pianist, Ashani Waityatillake, not only reached the finals of the Secondary Schools Competition with her Piano Trio but also won the Wallace Piano Competition in Auckland. She has received a full scholarship to attend the Curtis Institute Summer School in Philadelphia. Ashani is only 14 years of age with a wonderful future ahead of her.
