Speech and Drama Eisteddfod

What an amazing turn out we had for our Speech and Drama Eisteddfod this year. We had a large range of students competing from Early Years all the way through to Senior Years. It’s amazing to see so many students participating in The Arts – even the adjudicator was delighted to see it!

Many celebrations are to be had with our great results. Most students have been working towards this Eisteddfod all term, if not longer. Every student should be proud of their dedication and effort, regardless of the results. We can’t wait to see even more entries next year!

This week we held the winners concert and had a number of our students were selected to perform their winning pieces. We had both the Year 1 and Year 3 students invited. Lucy Bennie was also asked to perform her character recital, Lucy Scott her Humorous Verse Speaking and Nadine Garside performed her character recital.

To top off a brilliant night, we walked away with three (!) trophies!

Year 3 were named Best Overall Verse Speaking Choir

Lucy Bennie won the Primary Speech Champion

Nadine Garside received the Encouragement Award

Delicious and Delightful Festival

Mrs Sullivans classes were a whirlwind of colour and paint over the last few weeks as our students, who opted in, painted their lanterns for the Delicious and Delightful Festival.

The Delicious and Delightful festival is on this Saturday 26 August. We are looking forward to showcasing our lanterns in the parade. 

Students who have made a lantern are to make their way to the lantern assembly area at 6:30pm - the MC will announce this. This area is along the pathway towards Patrick Street, but we are sure that you won't miss all the lanterns. There will be a number of our staff to help you find your child's lantern which will have their name on it. Please remain with your child until the parade begins and collect them immediately upon completion of the parade. Alternatively, you are welcome to walk with your child. 

To help make it a little easier to find lanterns this year, we have written students names on the top of the lantern, colour coded depending on their year level.

Prep: Green

Year 1: Red

Year 2: Blue

Year 3: Purple

Year 4: Yellow/Orange

Year 5-12: Black

We are looking forward to this wonderful celebration of our community.
