JMSS Music Update – Term Two in Full Swing!

Music at JMSS is going strong as we head further into Term Two! Congratulations to Ms Irwin-Ray and Ms Sandra Chen for their outstanding work on the Autumn Vocal and Contemporary Music Soiree—a fantastic evening that showcased the talent and creativity of our vocalists and contemporary musicians. A huge thanks also to Mr Pete Palankay for running the sound and stage, and Mr Mark Lau for helping build the stage. 

We’re now gearing up for our first whole school concert of the year, happening next Thursday, May 29th at 7:00 PM. This exciting event will feature all of our major ensembles, including:

Concert Band

 Catalyst Strings

JMSS Choir

 Stage Band

Guitar Ensemble

 Flute Ensemble

Clarinet Choir

Jazz Carrots

Featured Soloists

Families, friends, teachers, and the wider school community are warmly invited to attend this special evening of music. Come along to support our talented students and celebrate the vibrant musical life at JMSS!

In other news, our highly anticipated 2024 Music Camp is about to go live on Compass! Running from August 7th to 9th at Don Bosco Campground in Dromana, this is one of the most popular and rewarding events on the music calendar. Make sure you get in quickly once sign-ups open—places fill fast!

Stay tuned for more musical highlights, and as always, thank you for supporting music at JMSS!
