During the last weekend of the recent school holidays, 50 of our senior music students ventured to Katoomba to participate in our College Music Camp.
It had been many years since holding one of these events, and it was fantastic to see so many students get involved. The students formed a large ensemble where everyone sang and everyone played an instrument. It was a great way to encourage new skills and performance experiences for everyone, whilst forming new friendships. Students were also able to visit Scenic World and witness the spectacular views of the Blue Mountains on all three of their scenic rides, have a fun movie night with popcorn, and enjoy singing songs around a camp fire.
On the final day, students put on a one-hour concert for parents, showcasing all the songs and new skills they had acquired over the weekend, and it was a fantastic concert with lots of variety.
Thanks to all the parents for supporting their child with this initiative, and to all the Creative Arts staff team for organising the event and extending the learning opportunities for all our music students.
