T.I.M.E (Music)
Arts Festival 2019 - Under the Big Top!
We are so proud of all of our TIME musicians! This year we tried something completely different to allow our students the opportunity to compose and collaborate with other musicians at TPS, for every student at TPS to be able to take part in a performance and the results were amazing! The educational opportunities provided to our students through this process were phenomenal.
A huge thank you to the TIME Teachers Eddie, Finley, Emma T, Max, Maria, Caitlin, Phil, Rosemary, Matt, Liam, Kate, Melissa, Jack, Juliette and Simon.
Thank you to our parents for helping us have all of our performers at all stages ready to go on the day.
Our classroom program has gone from strength to strength with Eddie who shone as our Ringmaster on the day.
The TPS Teacher band was a hit as always and thank you to Tali for writing our TPS version of Note Book writing! (The lyrics are below)
A massive congratulations goes to our DEADLY TPS student musicians for loving the learning, the experiences and the performance opportunities!
Thank you for your support of the TIME program at TPS - a program we should all be incredibly proud of!

everybody was "NOTEBOOK WRITING"
Oh-hoh-hoh-aahh
Oh-hoh-hoh-aahh x2
Chorus
Everybody was notebook writing
Those kids were fast as lightening
Gotta say it’s pretty exciting
Reading their notebook writing
With a pencil or a pen
In funky Thornbury town
We’ve been thinking things up
And writing them down
Learn the skills behind the art
Everybody knows the parts
To persuade or entertain
Let us tell you once again
Chorus
When you think of an idea
You write it in a book
Keep it all in here
So you can take a second look
You can edit or revise
Then publish when you’re done
We can see it in your eyes
You’re finding writing fun!
Chorus
Oh-hoh-hoh-oohh OO! AH!
Oh-hoh-hoh-oohh OO! AH! x2

TPS String Orchestras
Collingwood College and Wilunga Waldorf School
The Class 6 Orchestra were invited to attend Collingwood College for a day, where they joined up with the Collingwood College Senior Orchestra, a Year 10 music class, and Willunga Waldorf School Orchestra who had travelled all the way from Adelaide!!
Together students and teachers all squished into a rehearsal space and workshopped 3 songs together. They then performed them in the afternoon in the Collingwood College Theatre.
It was an incredible experience for all going musicians to be part of such an enormous orchestra- something new for all of them!
They all worked extremely well together and the resulting concert was not only uplifting but was of an exceptional standard!
Congratulations to all TPS students involved!!
MSO meets Brian Cox
Class 3/4S and Class 5/6S were lucky enough to see Professor Brian Cox on stage last Friday with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. What a great way to combine music and science and our students were taken on a journey through the galaxies whilst the mysteries of the universe became awe inspiring through the incredible music played by the MSO.
Thanks to all the wonderful students who represented our school so well on the day!
