7F -7I Music Concert

On Monday evening, our Year 7 Music students presented their Semester 2 Year 7 Music Concert. The performance showcased the progress made by students in 7F-7I as they performed pieces they have been rehearsing on their concert band instruments throughout the semester.

The concert was an important learning experience, giving students the opportunity to prepare for and perform in an ensemble setting. The program also featured several students who undertake specialist instrumental lessons, as well as performances by our Rising Stars Band.

We encourage Year 7 students to consider joining the Rising Stars Band, which rehearses on Mondays from 3:30-4:30pm, or to explore instrumental lessons to further develop their musical skills. Congratulations to all students involved on a wonderful and successful evening of music-making.
