Music Update 

Interesting music fact:   Musically trained children's ability to control their responses is one of the most important factors contributing to their improved academic performance

STATE SCHOOLS SPECTACULAR

This year two of our EMC students have been selected through audition to take part in the State Schools Spectacular later this year. Congratulations to Max Pollard who has a solo vocal position and to Gus Morrison who is playing trumpet in the orchestra. This is a wonderful achievement for these students.
