Showcase

Our annual music celebration concert – Showcase – was held on Friday 24 October at Robert Blackwood Hall at Monash University.

We loved seeing the audience and the rainbow lights. It was cool hearing A-P-T and the Marimbas. Going through the tunnel was fun and dark. We can’t wait to learn all the instruments now! Thank you Miss Rose.

Year 2 Reflections

Shariq, 2BC  –  When I played the drums I was so happy and I really liked being next to my friend Pio. 

 

Hridhaan, 2BC  –  I felt nervous. I liked the singing part, singing and hearing other people sing. 

 

Andrea, 2BC  –  My experience was crazy because I was almost late and I was on stage first and I was the last one to get tuned. The floor was very slippery, but the good thing was I liked being in the audience. I liked singing Octopus’ Garden better than the cello because the floor was way too slippery. I liked it and it was fun. 

 

Sia, 2F  –  I liked when other people played songs that I know. I liked when we got to go on the stage. I wanted to sing in front of my parents, but they couldn’t get a seat.

 

Weiqi, 2F  –  I liked singing. I liked hearing other people sing because I really like to sing and I like seeing other people sing. 

 

Owen, 2F  –  My favourite part was sitting with Lois. I liked seeing other people do drums and stuff. It was fun. 

 

Emilia, 2G  –  I felt really excited and a little bit nervous too. I really enjoyed the songs and it was actually quite nice. I really think Showcase is better than dance because dance is a little bit boring, but I really like Showcase. When I started to sing it was actually quite nice. 

 

Timo, 2G  –  I felt happy. I liked it. I had a great experience. 

 

Luke, 2G  –  When I did Showcase I felt a little bit nervous and happy at the same time. I enjoyed the rest of it and I really enjoyed singing Octopus’ Garden. I really liked it when the Preps sang Ask An Axolotl. 

 

Sophie, 2H  –  It was so fun and I liked singing the Octopus’ Garden and listening to lots of songs. 

 

Damian, 2H  –  It was fun. My favourite part was when I got to sing. I felt happy and excited.

 

Viola, 2H  –  I was a bit excited and also a bit nervous. Also I felt a bit happy. It was fun. I saw my parents there and it was a pretty nice day.
