🎭 Get Ready for Our 2025 School Production: Matilda Jr.!

We are thrilled to announce that our production will be Matilda Jr.! This much-loved musical, based on Roald Dahl’s classic story, is packed with energy, humour, and fantastic songs that will bring the magic of theatre to our school stage.

Our performances will take place on September 3 and 4, 2025 in the evening at Mount Lilydale Mercy College. Stay tuned for more details about tickets, rehearsals, and how families can get involved.

📣 Cast Announced to Students!

Congratulations to all the students in Grade 5 and 6 who auditioned for a role, solo, or specialist dance position in Matilda Jr.!

It’s no easy feat to prepare and perform at an audition—whether on your own or in a small group—and this bravery alone deserves a huge round of applause!

After an exciting audition process—including singing, acting, specialist dance auditions, and callbacks—we were thrilled to announce the cast to our students on the final day of Term One. The level of talent and commitment from our students was inspiring, and it was a real privilege to watch them share their skills and creativity.

We were especially proud of how brave and enthusiastic the students were, with close to 80 Grade 5/6 students putting their hand up to audition for a role. The talent on display certainly made casting a challenge!

We’ll be sharing the full cast list with the school community soon, and rehearsals will officially kick off in Term Two. We can’t wait to see this magical story come to life at WPPS.
