Sweet Tunes

2018 Musician of the Year.

What a fantastic night of amazing performances from Emmanuel and Eli Hall, Martineau Byrne,

Nioka Mellick-Cooper, Eva and Palmira Demaria O'Sullivan and Dante Michielin. The students presented 2 contrasting pieces to showcase their talents to this years adjudicator Dr Barry Bignell, who had the difficult job of deciding who would win the $150 first prize and $100 each for 2nd and 3rd prize. About 70 people attended the Musician of the Year Competition and all enjoyed refreshments provided by the Music Support Group while Barry took time to think through the students performances and  contribution to the school music program. In the end it was Emmanuel-1st Place, Dante-2nd Place and Eva-3rd Place. The students each received a medal on the night and will receive their prize money at Awards Night. Congratulations to all who participated.

 

Pop up Globe Excursion

An enthusiastic and captivated, sometimes literally, group of students from year 7 -12, witnessed a truly awesome spectacle in an excursion to see the Pop Up Globe performance of ‘As you like it’, at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl on Friday November 10. Stage fighting , interactive scenes and the odd tooth into the front row made sure we were all on our toes for the duration, some two and a half hours, as we witnessed Shakespeare as it was intended to be performed, popular and mass entertainment. Our peasant viewing spots actually enhanced the experience, and these students will now have first hand knowledge of the power of The Bard, up close and personal!

A fabulous experience.
