Dear Parents and Carers,

Holy Family School Musical: An Amazing Success

The School Musical last Friday evening was a testament to the incredible musical talents of our students and the hard work they put into their performances. Our students shone brightly, showcasing their singing and acting skills. Special congratulations go to our leading cast for their outstanding performances. Their commitment to their roles and the energy they brought to the stage were truly remarkable.

Participating in the school musical provided our students with invaluable experiences, from building confidence and teamwork to developing their artistic abilities. It was heartening to see their growth and the sense of accomplishment they felt after their performance.

The success of the musical would not have been possible without the support of our wonderful school community. Thank you to the parents, families and friends who attended the musical and cheered on our students. Your presence and encouragement made the event even more special. A special thank you to the parents who were respectful to my request by not taking photographs and videos during the musical to respect the privacy of the students.

A huge thank you to Mrs Brigid McNally, Mrs Leona Nash and our dedicated staff and volunteers who contributed to rehearsals, set design, costume creation, and technical support. Your hard work and passion were crucial in bringing this production to life.
