What a dynamic Term 3 it has been in Drama. Our Year 12 HSC students recently performed their Group and Individual performances with integrity, passion, and commitment. We are pleased to announce that 22 nominations were received for On Stage, a celebration of exemplary work at the state level. Thankyou to Ms van Aalen and Ms Redwin as class teachers on years 12 and to Mr Riorden, Ms Bamford and Mrs Fischer for their tireless assistance and collaborative approach that we take in Drama to allow everyone to shine.

Last week we welcomed the Junior School Play, James and the Giant Peach to the Packer Theatre. It was a vibrant celebration of imagination and storytelling, brought to life through the outstanding creative direction of Sophie Boniface. Her vision and dedication gave the production both heart and theatrical flair, allowing our students to shine on stage with confidence and joy. We also extend our sincere thanks to the Junior School team, whose collaboration and support ensured the success of the production. Together, they created a memorable experience that highlighted the creativity, teamwork, and talent of our young performer.

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the MAD Committee for their ongoing dedication and support of the creative and performing life of the school. I wish to acknowledge and thank Jenny Collison, Skye Bouvier and Chris North. As departing Year 12 parents they have given much of their time, energy, and passion to the arts. Their generosity and commitment have enriched the experiences of our students, fostering a culture in which the arts can truly thrive. We are deeply grateful for their contributions and the lasting impact they have made on our community.
