Harmony Week Showcase

The Performing Arts Team would like to thank all the cast and crew that dedicated their time to plan, rehearse and present the Harmony Week Showcase this Friday in the Performing Arts Centre. Performing to a sold-out audience, a variety of acts (filled with bands, dancing, speeches, vocal and instrumental performances) put on a celebration of diversity, inclusivity and empathy.  

 

Thank you to our talented Media Captains Samantha Chim, Mahmoud Elkady, James Lester, Lachlan Lau and Year 12 Media student Kayley Liang for creating promotional materials, filming and taking photos of the performance. Here is a short trailer of a behind the scenes look at their work Harmony Showcase Trailer

 

We would also like to acknowledge the efforts of our Senior Tech Crew leaders Trenton Ma, Oscar McNamara and Abishek Banerjee for bringing the show to life with their leadership of younger students and technical nous.

 

A very special mention to our amazing Performing Arts Captains, Natalie Chan, Grace Csorba, Riley Fong, Aayan Khurram, Priscilla Leung, Jordan Naidu, Ruby Soh and Amelia Tan, who were instrumental in the organisation, running and success of this event.
