Kew High School
A Mid-Year Note from Musicland
This semester has been a very busy and productive one for all who dwell in Musicland.
We were involved in many performances in and out of school, and had a most successful Mid-Year concert in June and Music Camp in May.
The Music camp had a number of visiting tutors, amongst them being very well known musicians: Geoff Achison and Adam Simmons. Geoff work-shopped blues songs with the guitar, bass and drum students while Adam worked with the Chinese Ensemble creating music for saxophone and Chinese instruments.
We were also involved in many excursions and performances in Musicland as listed below:
- Chaplaincy Dinner
- Anzac Day Ceremony
- Royal Melbourne Hospital Well-Being Festival: Chinese Ensemble, String Orchestra and Advanced Guitars
- A number of year level and whole school assemblies.
- Lunchtime concerts
- The Mid-year, Half-Time Concert
- Grade 6 Parent Information Night: Senior Concert Band and the String Orchestra
- Students performing at the North Eastern Region combined schools concert at Hamer Hall
Next term we will be busy with the school production of Grease, as well as a number of other performances and events.
