Winter Concert

Congratulations to all student performers and helpers for the Winter Concerts held on Thursday evening in the Performing Arts Centre.

From the huge 75-piece beginner Etude Band and the beginner Da Capo Strings, to our most advanced bands, string orchestra and vocal groups, all students performed to a high standard and should be proud of their achievements on the night.

Thank you to all families who made this event a success not just by attending, but by supporting home practice and early morning rehearsal attendance.

With our rapidly growing Instrumental Music program, it’s unfortunate that not all parents and friends were able to get a ticket. We will be working on strategies for future events to allow for bigger audience capacity.

Thank you to EDSC Parents and Friends who provided dinner and refreshment options between the two concerts.

Compass Consent Reminder

With a number of important performances and excursions coming up next term, please ensure to provide consent and payment when required in a timely way so we can plan and perform to the high standard we’ve come to expect from EDSC music students and ensembles.
