Primary Creative Arts Afternoon

On Wednesday 28th May, our school came alive with creativity as we celebrated the Primary Creative Arts Afternoon, centred around the inspiring theme of "Community."

 

Students eagerly contributed their artistic talents by entering pieces of artwork for the Primary Art Competition. These remarkable creations showcased exceptional creativity, skill, and ability, reflecting the passion and dedication of our young artists.

 

The celebration extended to the stage, where students performed a series of musical items. The afternoon began with a powerful performance from the Primary and Secondary Combined Ensemble, setting the tone for a fantastic display of musical talent. Following this, students took to the stage for vocal and instrumental performances, both individually and in groups, impressing the audience with their musical abilities and enthusiasm.

 

A heartfelt thank you goes to Mrs Judith Clark for her dedicated coordination of this special event, along with Mr Robb Dennis, Mrs Mandi Scott, Mrs Madeline Newton and Mrs Ema-Lee De Haan, whose invaluable support made the day a resounding success.

 

The Primary Creative Arts Afternoon was a true celebration of artistic and musical expression, bringing our school community together through creativity and talent.
