Choir members will be presented with their choir badge at assembly when they have met the minimum attendance requirement of 6 rehearsals. Choir members who still have a badge from their previous membership can opt to wear                                                                                their existing badge in the meantime. 

Disney's Frozen Jr: Performing Arts Showcase, 2025.

School productions at St Brendan’s School are traditionally much anticipated highlights of community engagement in our school, which occur biannually for many years. Productions showcase student talent and unite our community, bringing to fruition the Performing Arts curriculum. All students are expected to participate in both performances as they take the opportunity to develop their resilience, confidence and skills for teamwork. Parents with concerns or challenges around their child’s participation are asked to please contact me (preferably via email) or a member of the leadership team as soon as possible. 

Costumes

Last term, all families received a notification via Audiri pertaining to costume requirements. Please read this information and ensure that your child/ren have their clothing items (except black school shoes) as soon as possible, as these items were required by Monday, July 28th.

Ticketing

Please see the flyer in this edition of the newsletter for further information about ticketing. Tickets go on sale NEXT Tuesday, August 5th at 10 am. The cast performing at each of the two shows will be announced by the end of this week so that families can purchase their tickets accordingly. Please remember that all students are expected to perform in both the 11:30 am and 7:00 pm shows  at The Frankston Arts Centre on Monday, September 15th, 2025.

Rehearsals are now well underway for the main cast who have dialogue and solo or group singing parts. The rehearsal process is a ‘marathon, not a sprint’, so please be patient if your child is not required at every rehearsal. In time, all will be required! In the meantime, I encourage all students with main character roles to continue rehearsing their dialogue and songs at home via the resources on their Google Classroom. 

Yours in faith & harmony.
