Assembly Performances
After several months of online rehearsals and online tutorials, it is great to see students settled back into their in-school music routines.
With a challenging first half of the year behind us, we are delighted to announce that all students who are part of a Band and/or Orchestra ensemble will have the opportunity to perform at Assembly during Term 3.
This will be a great opportunity for students to perform with their ensemble groups and to showcase what they have been working on during weekly rehearsals and tutorials.
