This is the full group, including recent and junior members. For many, this was their first public performance with the group, with many junior members in the front and centre.

On Thursday, the Tira Tū group performed – the group that competed at the Regional Hautonga Competition last month. They performed half of their full bracket to an enthusiastic audience response.
