SENIOR CONCERT BAND AT NSW BAND FEST:
On Sunday 28 August, our College Senior Concert Band participated in the NSW Band Championships, held at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith. This was a great opportunity for our students to watch other school Concert Bands perform, and also have the opportunity to perform in a new venue, with a new audience.
The students performed extremely well, and were awarded second place! With more than 10 students unable to attend the performance due to illness and sports finals for soccer and AFL, this was a fantastic achievement from our band. Although we were a small group, we sounded twice the size and the adjudicators were very impressed!
Thank you to all the parents who supported their children in attending this event, and we look forward to more performance opportunities like this in the future.
