Pitt Street comes to Cecil Hills

Lunch time entertainment

During Term 3, a very brave and talented group of Music students at Cecil Hills High School participated in busking performances around the school grounds at lunch time. These students had been part of a song-writing and performance workshop run by Mr Joannides, where students could come along during lunch twice a week to share their ideas for new songs, work on their performance skills and generally enjoy a safe space for like-minded musicians at the school. Some of these students had never even picked up an instrument before! Their initiative and determination to learn a new skill and share their craft was inspiring. The goal for these students was to work towards a busking performance, whereby they would perform the songs they had been working on at lunch for the whole school to experience.

The performances were a huge success and created such a positive vibe around the school. Various locations included the Art quad, TAS quad, and on the bridge looking over the main Quad. So many students stopped to watch their peers perform and give them positive feedback, encapsulating the collaborative spirit at Cecil Hills High School.

It was a genuine pleasure to be a part of it, and these performances will be continuing throughout the school in the very near future and beyond! ​
