End of year Concert

Congratulations to all involved in our End of Year Concert. It was such a wonderful evening supported by the whole school community with the very special theme of celebrating 100 years of Frankston High School.

Coming Up...

Victorian School Music Festival

Despite our Year 12 students finishing up, things remain as busy as ever in the Music Department. This week our Training Concert Band and Junior Concert Band are sounding fantastic and are preparing to perform at the Victorian School Music Festivalin Hawthorn.

Best Fest Performance | Friday 22 November

All our Music students are also looking forward to performing at our centennial “Best Fest” celebrations on Friday 22 November. All Concert Band students will be performing under cover out the front of the stadium and we will also be having fantastic music in the courtyard outside Room 73. As part of Best Fest we have also been reaching out to former Music students and are excited about forming our Alumni Band that will be performing last on the evening.
