The Primary Schools Festival of Music is an iconic South Australian tradition that has inspired generations. It gives students the chance to experience artistic excellence, embrace cultural diversity, and celebrate social inclusion through the joy of performance.

When 36 of our students took to the stage at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre for the Public Primary Schools Festival of Music Stars on Stage, they performed with confidence and pride. Each concert featured 1,300 Year 5 and 6 students joining voices in a breathtaking massed choir. Audiences were also treated to Guest Artists from primary and secondary schools, vibrant performances across a range of musical genres, and impressive showcases from the orchestra and troupe.

This year’s concert opened with Robbie Williams’ electrifying Let Me Entertain You and closed on a powerful high with John Farnham’s iconic You’re the Voice, complete with stirring bagpipes that lifted the arena.

Stars on Stage was truly a spectacular celebration of what public school students can achieve when they come together through music and the arts. We are incredibly proud of our students for their hard work during the year learning to sing the 15 songs, their enthusiasm in rehearsals and their brilliance on stage.

Many thanks to Debbie Tsagatos for accompanying us on piano as we learnt the songs. A big thank you to Georgea Champion and parent helpers Megan Spiliopoulos and Cathy Taylor for helping us on our rehearsal and concert day. Thank you to the class teachers for your support with practices during the year. And lastly, thank you to our supportive parents who encouraged and helped us all year to achieve our goal of performing at The Adelaide Entertainment Centre.
