Important  

Info

Te  Kōkī  New  Zealand  School  of  Music  (NZSM)  

You  are  students  of  Te  Kōkī  New  Zealand  School  of  Music  (NZSM)  which  is  a  joint  venture  of  both  

Massey  University  and  Victoria  University.  For  those  completing  a  degree  or  diploma  entirely  with  

NZSM,  these  qualifications  are  jointly  awarded  by  the  two  universities.  Your  studies  will  take  place   predominantly  on  the  Kelburn,  Mt  Cook  or  Albany  Campuses.  Please  use  these  terms  when  referring  to   your  education  rather  than  focusing  individually  on  either  university.    

 

Te  Kōkī  is  simply  translated  as  the  'Dawn  Chorus'.  The  name  Te  Kōkī  was  gifted  to  NZSM  to  acknowledge  

  a  source  or  musical  inspiration  and  to  provide  it  with  a  distinctive  'Aotearoa-­‐New  Zealand'  flavour.  

 

The  terms  ‘NZSM’,  ‘Te  Kōkī’,  ‘New  Zealand  School  of  Music’,  the  ‘bird’  logo  and  the  joint  universities   logo  and  statement  have  specific  guidelines  and  rules  around  their  use.    While  they  SHOULD  be  used  for   any  event  or  activity  hosted,  presented,  sponsored  or  supported  by  NZSM  they  should  only  be  used   within  these  guidelines  and  rules.  The  NZSM  Marketing  Coordinator  or  your  Programme  Leader  can   advise  you  further.

Leave  

The   NZSM  Leave  Policy  will  be  distributed  to  all  students  via  Blackboard  at  the  start  of  Trimester  1  

All  leave  taken  or  classes  missed,  including  for  sickness  or  other  personal  reasons,  will  count  as   classes  missed  in  the  student’s  attendance  record.    The  mandatory  attendance  requirement  for   most  papers/courses  is  80%.    

If  you  are  away  due  to  illness,  please  leave  a  phone  message  with  your  Programme  Administrator,   who  will  notify  your  lecturers.  You  must  bring  a  medical  certificate  for  the  period  of  absence  to  your  

Programme  Administrator  as  soon  as  possible  after  you  return  to  classes.  

If  illness  is  likely  to  prevent  you  completing  the  final  assessment  for  a  paper/course  in  performance,   you  can  apply  to  your  Programme  Leader  to  have  your  assessment  delayed,  but  if  you  have  already   had  your  quota  of  lessons  for  the  paper/course,  you  will  not  be  entitled  to  extra  lessons.    If  you   have  missed  more  than  20%  of  classes  and  lessons,  the  Programme  Leader  may  recommend  you   withdraw  from  the  paper/course.  Note  that  delayed  assessment  for  one  student  may  not  be   granted  if  the  whole  group  is  to  be  assessed.      

In  the  case  of  written  work,  extensions  may  be  granted  by  the  Coordinator  of  the  paper/course   concerned.    If  for  reasons  of  illness  or  adverse  personal  circumstances  you  cannot  complete  your   final  piece  of  assessment  for  the  paper/course,  or  its  preparation  was  impaired,  you  can  apply  for   an  aegrotat  pass  in  the  whole  paper/course.    In  general,  it  is  better  to  seek  an  extension  for  the   final  assessment.    For  both  performance  and  written  work,  extensions  for  any  work  beyond  the   final  exam  period  require  the  approval  of  the  Director  NZSM.    See  the  assessment  handbook  for   further  details:   http://www.victoria.ac.nz/documents/policy/staff-­‐policy/assessment-­‐handbook.pdf

Change  of  contact  details  

It  is  highly  likely  that  while  studying  at  the  NZSM  you  will  change  your  contact  details  at  least  once!  If   your  circumstances  change,  please  update  your  contact  details  on  MyVictoria  http://my.vuw.ac.nz,   otherwise  staff  may  not  be  able  to  contact  you  with  important  information.      

Security  

The  NZSM  is  not  responsible  if  you  lose  any  of  your  personal  effects,  or  for  any  theft  that  takes  place   while  belongings  are  left  unattended.  Doors  must  not  under  any  circumstance  be  propped  open  after   hours  -­‐  this  endangers  other  students’  safety  and  poses  a  security  risk  to  NZSM  facilities,  which  may   result  in  after  hours  access  being  curtailed.

Smoking  on  University  Campuses  

Victoria  University  of  Wellington  and  Massey  University  operate  non-­‐smoking  policies  on  all  of  their   campuses.  

 

In  general,  Victoria  University  does  not  permit  smoking  under  cover  ways,  atriums,  or  within  three   metres  of  any  building.  The  open  courtyard  on  the  second  level  of  the  School  of  Music  premises  at  

Kelburn  is  considered  to  be  part  of  the  building  and  is  consequently  a  non-­‐smoking  area.    

 

Massey  University,  Mt  Cook  site  is  a  non-­‐smoking  area  except  for  designated  areas  where  students  may   smoke.  Smoking  in  the  vicinity  of  the  main  entrance  to  Block  One  or  near  the  Concert  Hall  entrance  is   prohibited.    

 

The  full  smoking  policies  of  each  University  can  be  viewed  on  each  Universities  website  and  students   are  requested  to  make  themselves  fully  conversant  with  it.

  Links  to  the  respective  websites  are:

Student  Services    

As  an  NZSM  student  you  have  access  to  the  student  services  of   both   Massey  and  Victoria  Universities.  

Generally  you  will  only  need  to  show  your  NZSM  ID  card,  though  sometimes  you  may  need  to  take   additional  action  to  access  particular  services.  If  there  are  any  problems  contact  an  NZSM  office.  If  you   wish  to  use  counselling  or  health  services  you  will  need  to  register  at  the  University  of  your  home   campus.  

Student  ID  cards  

New   Mt  Cook/Kelburn  based  NZSM  students  need  to  collect  their  student  ID  cards  from  the  

Enrolments  Office  at  Victoria  University,  located  at  Room  HU119,  Level  1,  Hunter  Building,  Kelburn  

Campus.  You  should  request  to  receive  an  NZSM  ID  card,  rather  than  a  Victoria  University  one.    The  

NZSM  ID  card  can  be  helpful  in  allowing  discounts  at  some  concerts,  music  shops  etc.  Once  you  have   collected  your  ID  card,  you  then  need  to  visit  the  Victoria  University  library  to  obtain  a  barcode  sticker   for  your  ID  card.  Without  this  you  will  not  be  able  to  use  the  services  at  Victoria  or  Massey  University  

  libraries.  

Albany  students  should  email  a  photo  to  enrolment-­‐enquiries@vuw.ac.nz  with  their  student  ID  number   and  request  that  their  ID  card  be  posted  to  them.    

 

You  must  be  fully  enrolled  and  have  paid  your  fees  in  full  to  receive  your  student  ID  card.    

Returning  students  can  update  the  expiry  date  on  their  ID  cards  at  the  Faculty  of  Humanities  and  Social  

Sciences,  located  on  level  four  of  the  Murphy  Building,  or  at  the  Mt  Cook  NZSM  office.  The  first  student  

ID  card  is  free  of  charge  and  replacement  cards  cost  $21,  which  can  be  paid  at  the  Enrolment/Payment   counter  on  level  1  of  the  Hunter  Building  at  the  Kelburn  Campus.

Library  Services  

 

As  an  NZSM  student,  you  will  have  access  to  the  libraries  on  the  Albany,  Kelburn  and  Mt  Cook   campuses.  You  will  need  your  NZSM  ID  card  (with  a  barcode  sticker)  to  use  and  borrow  from  these   libraries.  Mt  Cook  and  Kelburn  based  students  should  visit  the  Victoria  University  library  to  obtain  a   barcode  sticker  for  their  ID  cards  before  they  use  the  Victoria  /  Massey  libraries.

IT  access  

Kelburn  and  Mt  Cook  students:      

Your  IT  username  is  printed  on  your  Confirmation  of  Enrolment,  and  your  password  for  the  first  time  

  logging  in  will  be  your  student  ID  number.    

There  are  Victoria  ITS  computers  on  both  the  Kelburn  and  Mt  Cook  campuses  that  offer  access  to   myVictoria  –  the  student  portal  –  and  also  to  standard  software  such  as  Microsoft  Office,  and  other   specialised  software  like  SPSS  and  Endnote.  There  is  no  charge  for  internet  usage.  If  you  are  having   trouble  logging  on  to  myVictoria  or  this  is  the  first  time  you  are  using  your  ITS  account,  you  will  need  to  

  reset  your  student  password  by  calling  04  463  5050.  This  is  explained  in  Victoria’s  student  guide.      

It  is  very  important  to  ensure  that  all  NZSM  students  check  their  VUW  student  email  address,  which  is   attached  to  myVictoria.  This  will  often  be  a  first  port  of  call  for  Blackboard  announcements  or  messages   from  lecturers  containing  vital  academic  information,  so  this  email  account  needs  to  be  checked  on  a   daily  basis.  There  is  a  setting  that  enables  students  to  forward  incoming  mail  to  this  account  on  to  a  

  personal  email  address  that  you  will  check  regularly.  

Music  Therapy  students  are  likely  to  need  access  to  computers  on  the  Massey  IT  network  as  well,  and   may  collect  an  ITS  form  from  the  Mt  Cook  NZSM  office.  If  other  students  at  Mt  Cook  run  into  difficulties   from  not  being  able  to  access  the  Massey  IT  network,  they  should  contact  the  Mt  Cook  NZSM  office  in   the  first  instance.  VUW’s  Online  Library  Resources  are  available  to  all  NZSM  students  at   http://library.victoria.ac.nz/library/resources/online/bysubjectarea/music.html.

You  should  contact  the  administrator  at  Albany  to  organise  an  ITS  login  when  you  start  studying.      

Computer  rooms  

Mt  Cook    

The  computer  rooms  at   Mt  Cook  are  1D02  (midi  lab)  and  the  keyboard  laboratory  (1D14),  and  are   accessible  by  swipe  card.  These  rooms  are  not  available  for  student  use  when  there  are  classes  being   held  in  them.  There  are  also  computers  in  the  postgraduate  room  available  for  research  postgraduate  

  students  (Masters  or  Doctoral  level  thesis)  only.    

 

The  rules  of  access  will  be  posted  in  the  rooms,  and  these  may  change  from  time  to  time.  

Kelburn  

The  keyboard  laboratory,  room  202  at  the   Kelburn  campus  is  accessible  to  all  students  with  a  priority  to   students  working  on  their  ear  training,  via  swipe  card,  when  classes  are  not  being  held  in  there.  Access   to  this  area  of  the  building  is  limited  to  the  hours  of  8am-­‐6pm,  Monday  to  Friday.  Generally,  the   building  is  open  on  Saturday  mornings  due  to  activities  being  held  in  the  Adam  Concert  Room.  If  you   cannot  access  the  building  during  these  times,  you  will  need  to  contact  Campus  Security  in  the  Alan  

MacDiarmid  Building.  Other  general  use  computers  are  available  around  Victoria  University  campus  and   in  the  library.  Students  should  remember  that  the  corresponding  keyboard  laboratory  at  Mt  Cook   campus  (1D14)  is  available  evenings  and  weekends  for  students  who  apply  for  Mt  Cook  swipe  card  

 

  access.    

Albany  

There  is  a  dedicated  room  for  NZSM  students  at  Albany  with  6  computers  available  for  use  –  see  the   administrator  at  NZSM  Albany  to  organise  an  IT  login  to  use  these.

Photocopying  

Please  note  the  NZSM  adheres  to  strict  copyright  law.  Do  not  copy  more  than  5%  of  any  book  or   copyright  material.    

 

There  is  no  free  photocopying  available  for  undergraduate  students  at  the  NZSM.  

 

Student  photocopying  is  available  at  1D02  at  Mt  Cook,  in  the  NZSM  Kelburn  foyer,  and  at  the  VUW  

Library  and  computer  labs,  among  other  places,  at  Kelburn.    You  will  need  to  use  the  docupos  machine   to  load  money  onto  your  ID  card  in  order  to  pay  for  photocopying.    

Lockers  

At   Mt  Cook  there  are  lockers  available  for  student  use.  There  is  a  $25  bond  to  be  paid  for  a  locker  key,   which  students  will  get  back  when  they  return  the  key.  Students  should  pay  this  fee  at  Massey  Student  

 

Central  then  bring  their  receipt  to  the  NZSM  Mt  Cook  office  to  get  a  locker  key.      

At   Kelburn   there  are  a  variety  of  lockers  available.  These  are  allocated  by  the  NZSM  Office.  Please  come   to  the  NZSM  office  to  request  a  locker.  Those  lockers  that  have  a  key  provided  by  the  NZSM  will  require   a  $15  bond.  Students  will  be  asked  to  empty  their  lockers  at  the  end  of  the  2 nd  trimester.  Locks  will  be   cut  and  lockers  will  be  emptied  after  Monday  17  November.  Students  will  have  to  make  a  special   request  to  retain  their  locker  over  the  summer  period.  

Instrument  storerooms  

The   Mt  Cook  campus  has  two  general  instrument  storerooms  –  located  in  the  middle  corridor  of  the   practice  rooms  –  rooms  1C21  and  1C31,  and  a  bass  storeroom  in  room  1C17.  These  are  kept  locked  at   all  times.  To  obtain  a  key,  students  must  go  to  the  Contact  Centre  in  block  4  at  Massey,  pay  $15  and   bring  the  receipt  to  the  NZSM  office  where  they  will  be  issued  a  key.  Alternatively  there  is  a  key  in  the   office  that  can  be  borrowed  and  brought  back  each  time.      

Use  of  facilities  and  practice  rooms  

Mt  Cook:    

Practise  space  is  available  on  the  Mt  Cook  and  Kelburn  campuses.  The  Mt  Cook  practise  rooms  and   combo  rooms  operate  on  a  booking  schedule.  This  is  posted  at  the  end  of  each  week  on  the  notice   board  opposite  the  combo  rooms.  To  book  a  room,  just  write  your  name  on  the  sheet.  Class  times  have   been  blocked  off  in  advance.  You  are  allowed  to  book  rooms  for  a  maximum  of  2  hours  at  a  time.  If   there  is  a  conflict,  a  staff  member’s  booking  will  take  precedence.  If  you  wish  to  book  the  hall,  please  

  see  Berys  Cuncannon  in  the  office.  

 

Practise  facilities  are  for  the  use  of   NZSM  performance  students  only   -­‐  your  fees  are  paying  for  the   upkeep  of  the  space  and  the  instruments  provided.  If  you  need  to  bring  someone  who  is  not  enrolled  in   to  the  NZSM  building,  then  you  must  get  a  signed  letter  from  the  Head  of  Jazz   in  advance ,  stating  their   names  and  the  time  and  date  of  the  rehearsal.  Failure  to  comply  with  this  regulation  may  result  in  the  

  removal  of  non-­‐NZSM  personnel  by  security.  This   does  happen.  

Please  be  considerate  when  using  the  practise  rooms.  Don’t  play  too  loudly,  as  it  may  disturb  those   around  you  and  /  or  damage  the  equipment.  If  you  would  like  to  play  funk  /  fusion  style  material,  please   use  room  1C46  as  the  drum  kit  in  that  room  is  the  most  appropriate;  the  other  kits  are  bop  kits  and  will   not  stand  up  to  the  punishment.
