Performing Arts
Music Matters
A very big thanks to all the Performing Arts students and their Ensemble Directors for their efforts last Saturday for Open Day. It was a little different to Open Days of the past and it was also ”bucketing” down but we really represented the performing arts in a very positive way.
I’m looking forward to Thursday’s performances which will represent a return to performing for the first time in over a year. Forecasts have it that it will be sunny so we anticipate being in the Junior School yard. If the weather is not so kind we will move into the gym. We as I have said are still under some COVID protocols so we ask that boys simply perform then leave, albeit we anticipate a concert of only around 1 hour.
Use the link to book for Thursday's performances:
The link will close tomorrow unless booked out prior.
We will be going ahead with our Term 2 Twilight Concert in Week 4. At this stage we are looking to have our strings, guitars, Primary Concert Band and Choir performing. I will be monitoring COVID updates as they come to hand and will have more information soon.
Our 2nd PAPA meeting will be on Monday April 24 at 7.00 pm. All are welcome to attend. We will be gather in person for this meeting. The venue will be announced early Term 2.
Good luck to our Drama students as they approach the final stages of their Climate Change project. Filming should start soon.
