Mid-Year Melodies
Congratulations to all the students involved in our ‘Mid-Year Melodies’ concert last Thursday night. It was wonderful to see our bands and larger ensembles perform for family and friends and we thank all students and their teachers for the extra time they have put in to prepare for this fabulous event.
Thanks also to Willow and Sian, our 2022 Performing Arts Captains for hosting the evening.
Victorian State School Spectacular
We are extremely proud to have 2 LHS Instrumental Music students participating in this year’s State School Spectacular – Heidi Graupner (Clarinet) and Erin Allison (Oboe).
Rehearsals are well under way and we are looking forward to seeing the final performance on Saturday September 10, at John Cain Arena.

VSSS and D2 Drumline are also looking for experienced drummers (AMEB grade 6 or higher) to join the cast.
