What's On at DCS

Celebration Service

Devonport Christian School is excited to gather as a community for our 2025 Kinder to Year 9 Celebration Service.

Our Celebration Service will be held at the paranaple centre, 6:15pm Wednesday 3rd December.  Market Square will be available for families to bring a picnic and socialise from 5:00pm onwards. Doors to the paranaple centre will open at 5:45pm and everyone will need to be seated by 6:15pm.

Our Celebration Service is a wonderful evening where we have the opportunity to reflect on this year, praise and worship God for His amazing goodness to our school and celebrate our students and staff. Selected students from Prep through to Year 9 will participate during the night, some on stage and others in the auditorium. Year 6 students, DCS Vocal Ensemble, Primary and Secondary 2026 Captains will be on stage during the evening. To allow for maximum seating for parents, grandparents and guests, Kinder students will participate by watching from the Aberdeen room on Level 2; and all students Prep to Year 9 who are not performing, will be participating watching in the Arts Centre Theatre. Details about their drop off and collection will be shared on Schoolbox closer to the event. 

Tickets are now available through our online booking system. 

To secure your tickets, please indicate on the online order form how many tickets you would like for your immediate family. This form will be the only way tickets can be secured. There is no cost for tickets, but as there is limited seating, a ticket will be required for entry to the paranaple centre. Families are able to reserve up to four tickets for the evening.
