Congratulations to our Senior Concert Band who performed a wonderful concert for all Year 7 students in the Performing Arts Theatre at the end of Week 4. To produce such a high quality concert so early in the year is a testament to the talent and hard work of all our Senior Music students. Our Junior Concert Band also had their first performance of the year at our Music Information Night on Tuesday night. This week we have been busily working with our new Year 7 students to try out different instruments and make our new Training Concert Band for 2025. If you missed our Music Information Night and would like your child to be involved email Mr Braithwaite at bbraithwaite@fhs.vic.edu.au.

Lastly, we want to make special mention of our Senior and Intermediate Stage Band students working really hard in preparation to head to South Australia for the Generations in Jazz Festival in May. This festival is a huge event that draws 5000 students each year to Mount Gambier who perform for one another. The weekend also involves amazing concerts and workshops from some of the best jazz musicians in Australia and the USA. Lots of exciting things happening in the Music Department in 2025.
