Arts Day

We are looking forward to hosting the inaugural Arts Day, ‘Wildest Dreams’. Students have been busy workshopping their House Dance and House Song for Arts Day. This week they will have their final rehearsals with choreographers, Jack and Jess, which will culminate in performances on next Wednesday. Students have also signed up for workshops in the middle session of the day – Music Fest, Visual Art, or Theatre Sports.

Parents and Carers are invited to watch from 2:00pm to 3:00pm in the Assembly Hall.

College Musical

The first-round auditions for the college musical, ‘The Little Mermaid’, have been completed and we were impressed. Students from Years 4-9 have blown us away with their singing and acting skills. Thank you to all who attended.
