Mary Poppins Jr. Rehearsals underway
Our College Production rehearsals kicked off last week with a cast of exceptionally talented students all set to take on the roles of Mary Poppins and an assortment of iconic Edwardian characters.
Stay tuned for our next newsletter, where we will share a sneak peek of our rehearsals.
Production Set Design
Following the success of our in-house design team for the 2025 College Production, Beauty and the Beast Jr., we held a meeting on Monday for students interested in joining this year’s Production Design Team. We were thrilled to see so many students attend.
Above you will find photos from just a few of the beautiful sets that the students from the 2025 Design Team created for last year’s production. These images highlight the incredible talent and dedication of our students and the amazing work they produced.
Announcing our 2026 Set Design Team
Congratulations to all students selected for the Mary Poppins Set Design Team! We’re so excited to see your creativity come to life on stage.
📅 First meeting: Monday 4 May, recess in PA1
If you weren’t selected this time, don’t worry - Crew applications will be opening later this term, so keep an eye out for your chance to get involved!
Interested in joining the magic behind the scenes?
Students interested in being part of this year’s College Production Crew for Mary Poppins Jr. will have the opportunity to officially sign up late in Term 2.
The production crew plays a vital role in bringing the show to life, working behind the scenes to ensure every performance runs smoothly. Available roles include lighting, sound, stage hands, props, costume and media.
Being part of the crew is a fantastic way to experience the excitement of a live performance from a different perspective and help create the magic that audiences see on stage.
Keep an eye out for sign-up information in late Term 2 if you would like to get involved.
Battle of the Bands
We are excited to be back this year with an even bigger Battle of the Bands! Our music students are looking forward to performing in a friendly competition alongside schools from across the Cardinia region – Edenbrook Secondary College, Emerald Secondary College and Koo Wee Rup Secondary College.
Last year’s event was outstanding and we can’t wait to see the incredible talent on display again. Please click on the image to book your tickets - hurry - before they sell out!
The event will be held at Cardinia Cultural Centre on the 18th of June from 6pm.
