🎟️ IMPORTANT TICKET INFORMATION

We're excited for our whole-school production, The Great Australian Roadtrip, coming up soon! With two performances — a 12pm matinee and a 6pm evening show — and strong demand expected for the evening session, we want to make sure every family has a fair opportunity to see their child perform.

Here's how ticketing will work:

Phase 1 — Opening Monday August 24 at 12pm

Evening show (6pm): capped at 2 tickets per family, to ensure every family has the opportunity to attend.
Matinee (12pm): open with no ticket limit — ideal for grandparents, extended family, or anyone wanting extra seats.
Please book by Sunday August 30th.

Phase 2 — Opening Monday August 31st at 12pm

Once Phase 1 bookings close, we'll release any remaining evening seats.
These additional tickets will be available on a first-in, first-served basis.
We'll notify all families when Phase 2 opens so everyone has an equal chance to book.

CONCERT COSTUME REMINDER
