Music Report for August

For a lot of our music students this was the first time they have performed in this festival which runs over 5 weeks involving schools from all over the metropolitan area and beyond. After a 3-year hiatus it is great to be back performing and listening to other schools. Our student were fine ambassadors for the College, often in sections of heavily dominated private schools.
