At the end of 2019, Robyn worked with Jacqui at Te Atatu South Kindergarten to involve the children in a very successful project turning a Maori legend into a musical performance with the children very much as composers. They are keen to share the process they used with others with the thought that it would enable others to apply this process in other contexts.
