PERFORMANCE AND INSTRUMENTAL NEWS—AUGUST

FEAST DAY CELEBRATION

On Thursday, July 27th, students were treated to a wonderful day of activities. The talent quest was so much fun and special thanks to our arts captain Zoe Walter who organised the acts.

We were so delighted to have Jaron Mulholland as our guest artist and chief judge. Jaron is a past student who has worked extensively with his band in Europe. He has also worked for Universal Studios in writing film music and advertisements. Jaron was impressed with the acts and he also performed to the College.

Many thanks to the Senior Band, the Choir and Alana Whatman for performing at the assembly.

INSTRUMENTAL SHOWCASE -AUGUST 2ND

The annual Instrumental Showcase was certainly a winner this year. Over 100 students performed in the MPC to the many parents and friends of the college.

Many thanks to our very competent compere, Zoe Walter. A big thank you to our ensemble directors, Mrs Grant, Mr Wilding, Mrs Wilding, Mr Neal and Mr Rudd for all their hard work.

We were incredibly proud of all our students and the way they conducted themselves. All the ensembles are growing in numbers and the rock bands are rocking!

Year 7 & 8 Rock Bands

The Year 7 and 8 Rock Bands have been hard at work all year rehearsing their songs for debut performances at Feast Day and Instrumental Night. Both bands have shown enormous dedication by giving up their lunchtimes to rehearse each week. Above all, they have supported each other's success through teamwork and collaboration within the Ignatian tradition, each bringing their own strengths and talents to the groups.

Congratulations to Millie Tognon, Ava Burke, Fabian Cardozo, Troy Stibbard, Grace Taylor, Will Bosman, Tess Cirillo, Blayke Mifsud, Sebastian Stante, Ebony Binnion, Zoe Furber and Imogen Payne
