Whanganui Rotary Club members and guests were treated to something special at their meeting on 14 November.
The club sees it as part of its mission to support the young talent of Whanganui.
Jessica O'Connor started performing in shows at a very young age and realised that this is what she wanted to do with her life. Jessica has an obvious natural gift for expressive singing. But talent is rarely enough and she has shown that she has the discipline and determination to put in the hard work of rehearsal and practice.
Jessica is proudly supported in her personal musical journey by tutor and friend Marie Brooks.
