Year 5

Year 5’s took the opportunity to celebrate Mardi Gras music and dance outside on the asphalt.

Year 5’s were involved in a wonderful musical Incursion conducted by Beaumaris Secondary College. This involved teachers and students from Beaumaris Secondary College leading the rehearsal and performance of a song using percussion instruments. Our students had a taste of the strong musical program offered at Beaumaris Secondary College. It was a truly memorable day and we thank Beaumaris Secondary College for all their time and effort.

Year 6 explored musical pictures and producing pictures as a response to emotional music.
