ABOUT US

MEO - Music Education Otago

The Otago Society for Music Education is now operating as Music Education Otago (MEO) to be consistent with Music Education New Zealand Aotearoa, and other regional groups such as Music Education Waikato and Music Education Canterbury, with whom we are affiliated. MEO continues to strengthen as the local face representing Music Education in Otago and Southland. It is therefore valuable for MEO to seek membership so that local music educators and community groups can remain in communication with each other and be supported where needs arise. We would love to hear from you, with ideas for supporting music education in the Otago and Southland regions.
