Scholarship

Scholarship award winner Rahni Wightman...Congratulations!

We’re excited to announce that VSSS18 cast members Rahni Wightman and Jake Lonergan (Viewbank College) have been awarded scholarships with one of our partners Jason Coleman's Ministry Of Dance. They have been offered professional qualifications in Dance and Musical Theatre with a tuition value of $23,500 each. Congratulations to you both!!!

After weeks and weeks of blocking, re-contextualising and rehearsing the Unit 3 Theatre Studies class made their way to the Kingston Arts Centre for their Stagecraft examinations.

With their props, costumes and set pieces ready – the students were ushered into the rehearsal space to prepare for their names to be called. One by one the students were directed into the assessment rooms where they delivered their Oral Framing Statement then performed their interpretation of their selected monologue, followed by answering a question from the panel of assessors.

What followed was relief and release. Months of hard work learning lines, sourcing costumes and set pieces and rehearsing the 5 minute monologues was over in a matter of minutes.

Congratulations to Imogen, Hector, Emily, Jordan, Brianna and Naomie for all of their hard work.

Good luck for your written exam next week.

VET Dance

The VET Dance students have been working on their solos for the VET Dance exam. They learn 2 solos in differing dance styles and perform these 45 minutes after each other. We have had professional choreographers come in and teach the solos that were performed in the Senior  Dance Performance in August. The girls both did a Contemporary and Jazz routine and were relieved when their exam was over. When studying VCE the exam contributes to the ATAR score.
