Music: Outdoor Performances

Since the last newsletter we have had quite a few outdoor musical performances. 

Many have been at lunchtimes outside the canteen creating a real atmosphere and the new Year 10 band ‘Iris’ performed their first gig at a local market in Moolap over the school holidays. Well done to all our amazing musicians!

For students looking to sign up to do a lunchtime outdoor performance in future, follow the link to the signup form on Compass and in their emails. We look forward to running more outdoor concerts in the near future.
