Music Notes

Ms Nicole Bull, Head of Performing Arts

On behalf of the Performing Arts staff, I would like to welcome you all back to what promises to be a sensational year in Music and the Performing Arts.  Lessons and Ensemble rehearsals are underway for the year, and we encourage all students learning an instrument to be part of an ensemble or choir.

For any new students who already learn an instrument, please contact Mr Kurt Abell or Music Administration if you would like more information on the music opportunities available at Kilvington.

Jazz Cabaret Evening – Friday 27 March

The Jazz Cabaret evening is coming up on Friday 27 March at the St Kilda Town Hall.  We are looking forward to presenting this event in a new and larger venue with greater seating capacity and two stages!

Our senior performance groups from Years 9 – 12 will be performing.  Auditions for soloists in Years 9-12 will be held in Week 5, with further details posted on KCEE. In addition, keep an eye out on KCEE for the ticketing information, which will be released soon.

Senior School Production

Rehearsals for the 2026 Kilvington Senior School Production of The Wedding Singer have commenced!

All students involved will be working incredibly hard two nights after school each week. Performances will be in Dalton Hall Thursday 21 May, Friday 22 May and Saturday 23 May.

Year 7 Music Expo

Our Year 7 students started the year with a fantastic opportunity to try a wide range of musical instruments last week.

As well as being a great way to make new friends and broaden your school experience, learning a musical instrument provides significant benefits in brain development and academic success.

For more information on some of these benefits, please watch this video:
