2023 Senior Choir
- Senior Choir rehearsals started this week. Rehearsals will be on Wednesday at Second Lunch. All Seniors are welcome to attend, even if they missed out on the first week.
- A notice has been sent via Operoo to all students who attended the first rehearsal. Choir tops can be purchased for $40 (cash in an envelope given to Lorenza or Vivienne at the front office) or at the Second Hand Uniform Shop (if stock is available). I have made a bulk order and should receive the tops in six to eight weeks. All the details can be found on the Operoo notice. For more information, please email me (Kristy) at kgalea@sfslynbrook.catholic.edu.au
2023 Production Advertisement Competition
- This year is Production Year. The Juniors will be performing ‘Destination Regulation’ which explores different emotions.
- The Seniors will be performing ‘Colour My World’, which is about a family that seeks to find colour/happiness in their lives.
- This year, students are welcome to create an advertisement for each production using the website ‘Canva’. Please email/share your advertisements to me by Week 5. kgalea@sfslynbrook.catholic.edu.au
Example of Advertisement
- Please use the website Canva:
The advertisement needs to have ‘St. Francis de Sales Primary School’ and the title of the Production. The rest will be added in when dates are finalised.
Auditions in Class
- This week, students had the opportunity to audition for roles in the 2023 Productions. Auditions were conducted in Wellbeing/Music classes with Rachel and I. We have allocated roles and these students will receive a letter and a script in a couple of weeks, after the script has been finalised. There were so many amazing auditions that we need to write more script! Good luck to all those who auditioned!!
