Music Update
Interesting music fact: Having good rhythmic skills appears to be essential not only for music or dance but also for language and communication skills
MUSIC FESTIVAL
The Music Festival was a great success with 120 students performing over two stages! The event began with all 120 students on stage performing together which was great fun and set the tone for the rest of the event. Congratulations to all students who performed. Stay tuned for our performance dates for 2023
STUDENT PERFORMANCE AT CUBE 37
On Thursday 17th November Issy Cauchi performed at the Statewide Autistic Services Art Show at Cube 37 at the Frankston Arts Centre in front of local government members and the wider community. Issy sang a number of songs and accompanied herself on guitar and piano as the audience viewed the artwork. Congratulations to Issy on a wonderful performance!
