Australian Drumline Competition

On Saturday 12 August, a significant milestone was achieved as our Snr Drumline made its debut at the Australian Drumline Competition.

 

The performance of our Snr Drumline was nothing short of captivating, and their efforts were not only appreciated by the audience, but also recognised through a series of prestigious awards.

 

We commend the outstanding performances of Josephine Colacino, Ella Bowler, and Zena Colacino, who competed in the solo sections. In addition, our entire Snr Drumline (consisting of Josephine, Ella, Zena, Kaitlin, Toby and Saxon), competed at an exceptional level against Drumline ensembles from other schools across Australia in Division B.

 

The results of the Snr Drumline’s efforts were recognised by earning several accolades including:

  • Overall Champion Drumline (Division B)
  • Best Test Piece (Division B)
  • Best Own Choice Piece (Division B)
  • Honourable Mention for Best Snare Section (Overall Division A and Division B)
  • Honourable Mention for Best Tenor Section (Overall Division A and Division B)
  • Josephine: Gold (Open Snare Solo)
  • Ella: Silver (Open Snare Solo)
  • Zena: Bronze (Open Tenor Solo)

We extend gratitude to our Drumline Director, Mr Kevin Kiely, for the pivotal role he played in preparing our Snr Drumline to participate in the competition. His expert guidance and dedication was instrumental in elevating our Snr Drumline to such impressive heights.
