Performing Arts

What a glorious feelin'...

Productions are a unique experience at high school... it's the one event where students from all year levels, work tirelessly for months on end, on one big creative endeavour. They have a common goal - to put on a show. But the experiences the students gain are so much broader than that. The Production program is so much more than the common perception of a week off of classes. Our students know this, our community know this, and this is what makes the Performing Arts at our College, strong.

The Production provides students the opportunity to work on their creative endeavours - be it acting, singing, dancing, design. It encourages organisational and interpersonal skills. It connects us to the community. It helps our college bond over a common goal - to share a story to a live audience. We learn to work hard and we learn from our mistakes. We learn to be accountable to each other and most importantly, we learn about ourselves. 

Our program is only growing bigger each year. This is why we kept our production at Burrinja Cultural Centre. With incredible ticket sales, and record student involvement, our intimate college theatre space can no longer contain the beast that is "The Production". This year we shared the Burrinja stage with Waverley Meadows and Wheelers Hill Primary - what a privilege to work with the next generation of young performers and artists. 

This is what a Production is. It's not just another event in the calendar. It's an educational phenomenon that is absolutely embraced by our students. And it has been a privilege to work alongside such passionate, unified, Super, students. Congratulations to you all.
