2025 Arts Festival

Arts Festival - Friday 5 September, 3.30pm - 7.00pm
Our students are getting excited about showcasing their talents through performances and exhibitions and our annual Arts Festival
There will be Music, Dance and Drama performances across several stages, an Art Gallery featuring work by students from ELC up to Year 10, and food and drink options.
All students will be participating either as performer, artist, designer, or at the very least, audience member supporting their peers. The Arts Festival is a chance to celebrate the artistic endeavours of all students, not just those who excel in a particular area. With this in mind, all parents and friends are warmly invited to come and support the students. There will be food vans and refreshments available.
A performance schedule for Music, Dance and Drama items can be viewed by clicking on the link below. Please remember that times of performances are indicative only and can run ahead or behind the time stated.
Also, there may be changes made to the program in the lead up to the event. Keep watch on the College's Facebook page for the most up-to-date version so you can plan your afternoon/evening.
For our Primary students (Years 3 – 6), we ask that they assemble in their classroom 20 minutes before their class item is due to begin. Staff would have organised with students’ what time they will be required back in rooms. Our Early Years students (ELC, Kinder, Prep, Year 1 and Year 2) will be supervised after school until their item begins with the Kinder and Prep students being in Year 1 and Year 2.
Please pack extra food so that children may enjoy an afternoon snack. The students will be dismissed after the conclusion of their performance, and school bags may be collected from their classrooms or ELC. Kinder and Prep bags will be in Year 1 or 2. Students are however encouraged to look at the art work on display, watch some other performances and take in the sights and sounds of the afternoon/evening. Extra teachers will be on duty from 3.05pm – 3.30pm as we are aware that more students than usual will be staying in the playground after school.
Secondary Students who are performing need to ensure they are neatly presented in their full College winter uniform for musical items, and in appropriate performance costumes for drama and dance items.
Please do not hesitate to contact Student Services on 6216 7900 or via email info@mountcarmel.tas.edu.au or your child’s class teacher if you have any questions.
