It’s been a real celebration of the performing arts this week!

With Year 10 drama students progressing through to the finals of a script writing and performance workshop at the Riverside Theatre, the Choral Festival hosted here at the College welcoming hundreds of students to share in the joy of performing vocal arrangements together and the Dance workshop and concert attended by our Junior and Senior Dance troupes at Oran Park Anglican, our performing arts students and staff have been in top gear! The dancers are also attending an eisteddfod next Saturday and we wish them every success. What wonderful opportunities for all of our talented performers to showcase their skills and share in the joy of the various activities with other students across the state who likewise are passionate about these areas.

College academic reports for Years 7–12 will come out throughout the course of the rest of this term and will be an excellent opportunity to discuss your child’s progress with them before the Parent Teacher evenings. Much study should be occurring for important assessments which will be reported on in those reports, so be sure to check in with your child about how they are working towards those items. Maybe offer to mind their phone for them each evening so they can knuckle down with some personal revision or engage with them about other methods that might assist them.

Have a safe and enjoyable long weekend.
