END OF TERM CONCERTS

What a great way to finish off the Term with two wonderful concerts. All of the music students played to a very large audience on Wed 27th in Westside and also the Musical Morning tea concert on Thursday 28th March.

The Wednesday evening concert gave all of the new beginners a chance to perform in their debut concert. We had over 110 students in this band. Certainly a real challenge to fit them all on the stage. What an amazingly big sound they produced. Seven schools came together for this event, featuring MSC, Mooroopna PS, Mooroopna Park PS, Mooroopna North PS, Tatura PS, Murchison PS and Dhuringile PS.

A highlight of the Term is performing for the Shepparton Villages and various community groups and schools. It is so special to see the delighted faces of the elderly enjoying the music from our young students on the stage. This connection is priceless. The combined band was featured along with the Senior Jazz Band, vocal ensembles and soloists.

After the concert the audience was treated to a Devonshire tea in W1 & 2.

A sincere thank you to Front of House helpers, Jeanette Smith for making all those yummy scones, the preparation and set up team in the W1 dining room, all the students who carried the  music equipment and chairs  to WestSide (which was a huge job), the senior students who assisted with the ushering during the Morning tea concert, and most importantly all of the musicians who performed. Without you we have no concert. Thank you.
