NZ Champion Campbell Thwaites Further Achievements – New Zealandby Harley Jones |
 This has been a year of many successes for 17 year old Campbell Thwaites who won an international accordion competition category in Sarajevo earlier this year, then won the top solo category of the 2011 South Pacific Accordion Championships in June (photo of presentation), and has now achieved Dux (highest marks) of Hawera High School in South Taranaki.Additionally, Campbell Thwaites is the Deputy Head Boy of Hawera High, and also finds time to play tennis, cricket and soccer for his school teams as well as tennis and soccer with local sports clubs. Campbell has been taught by Lyn Waite of Hawera, Rebekah Greig of Wellington, and currently travels for lessons to Sydney with Tania Lukic-Marx on a semi-regular basis. Campbell Thwaites is certainly an inspiration to school age accordionists around the world. |
