Music at the Market
On Saturday 17th March, Selected music students from Year 9 and 10 performed at the Chelsea Heights Primary School Easter Market. Besides a little wind, the weather was near perfect and the band shone bright in the morning sunshine. The band played on for a solid half hour and won over many new audience members over the duration of the performance, including the organisers of the market who were ecstatic to have such a high quality of live music at their event. The music staff would like to thank all the students who volunteered to perform and their commitment to rehearsing together on Friday afternoons prior to the event. Well done!
