Term 1 has been an exciting and eventful time for all involved in the Performing Arts. As the term draws to a close it’s a great opportunity to celebrate some of the fantastic work that has been happening across the Performing Arts subjects.

Year 7 Drama students created a group performance based on a classic fairy-tale, with an original twist. Students used theatrical conventions to make significant changes to the characters and plot. The Twisted Fairy-tale performances were creative and highly engaging.

Year 7 Music had focus on the music elements, rhythmic patterns, and music technology. Students created their own rhythmic compositions manipulating the elements through a live performance and use of music technology.

Year 10 Music Sound Productions was a new elective for 2022. Students were introduced to song writing and song analysis before presenting their own original songs for performance.

Year 9 Drama, Year 10 Theatre Studies and Dance students were privileged to view a live show - Little Shop of Horrors staged by Western Arts. This allowed them to gain an insight into live theatre and productions to enhance their theatre writing reviews.

Congratulations to all students who showcased their talents across all Performing Arts subjects.

Thank you to our wonderful Performing Arts teachers: Ms Jordyn Bugeja, Ms Katie Franzone, Ms Laura Mason, Mr Shingo Gibson-Suzuki, Dr Chris McGillen and Mr Ben Wisbey.
