PERFORMING ARTS

Monologues

On Monday October 10th our Year 12 Theatre Studies students undertook their Monologue exams. Externally assessed, these 8-minute presentations required students to present and justify an interpretation of a script using acting, directing or design. Congratulations to all on completing this mammoth task!

Chamber Strings Performance at Knox Retirement Village

On the 14th of September the Chamber Strings ensemble lead by Ms Angela Huang had the opportunity to perform for the residents of the Knox Retirement Village. The ensemble was able to play through their performance repertoire they had been working on this year and students were also able to perform some of their solo performance pieces.

The residents were very appreciative of the performance and it was great for the chamber strings to get some valuable performance experience in the wider community.

Thank you to all the students involved and to Ms Huang for organising this performance opportunity.

2022 Virtual Instrumental Concert Series

Last week we released our Virtual Instrumental Concert Series! The students worked really hard on preparing their solo items, and had the opportunity to record and submit their performances. We are so proud of all the students who participated in the Concert Series, and hope that if you haven’t already, you take the chance to check them out! The concerts are divided into instrument groups, and each concert has a wide range of student abilities from a variety of year levels! We hope you enjoy listening to all the wonderful performances.

Ensemble Concerts

At the end of Term 3, we were able to celebrate both our senior and junior/intermediate ensembles with a LIVE concert! It was a fantastic opportunity for students to perform the pieces they have been working on throughout the semester, and perform high quality music to a live audience – an experience we have deeply missed over the past couple of years. We were so thankful that these concerts were a positive and fun experience for the students, and would like to thank the families who attended for their support.
