Thank you to all the Music students for all their practice and attendance at rehearsals and to all the Music Staff (Mr Brodie, Mr Dillon, Mrs Howes, Mr Ondaatje, Mr O’Connell, Mr Rowlands and Mr Sheers) for preparing them so well and getting them to the festival and home safely. Thank you also to Ms McGee for attending the Wind Symphony performance, your time is greatly appreciated.
