Students embracing the arts

A big song and dance

Student Performances
This term our Year 9 and 10 music classes performed to their peers at assemblies. The Year 10 class presented to the Middle and Senior Schools Assembly, performing the well-known song 'Don't Look Back In Anger' by Oasis - featuring one of our new exchange students Axel Meyer, and students Chloe Dowd and Angelie Ho.

The Year 9 music class has been exploring video game music this term. As a class, the students learnt an arrangement of the gaming music 'Sweden' from the popular game Minecraft. Performed by Gina Barreto, Lauren Goricki, Theodore Sweeney, Angus Renfrey and Zedekiah Fielding, and coupled with reflective lyrics and a melody line composed by Summer Dealtry, 'Now and Then' was a great example of students working collaboratively as artists, and taking risks to share their original work with others. Well done!

Building on the success of last term's Karaoke on Caritas Day, our four Year 12 Arts Leaders (Raff Raschella, Marianna de Tullio, Liv Sampson and Isabelle Stein) organised 'Karaoke for a Kause'. Held in the Library, this lunchtime event included students from the Junior School and Middle School, supporting the St Vinnies Winter Appeal.
