Performing Arts

Congratulations to all students who participated in the remarkable Foundation Night Concert. It was an evening brimming with talent, creativity, and sheer dedication, showcasing the vibrant spirit of our Oxley College community.

From the Senior to the Junior School, our students shone brightly, each performance a testament to their hard work and passion for the performing arts.

The evening unfolded with the majestic melodies of our stunning Pipe Band, their harmonious tunes echoing through the amphitheatre, welcoming all who gathered for the event. We were treated to captivating performances by our Girls and Boys Vocal Ensembles and Brass Ensemble whose harmonies resonated throughout the hall, filling it with beauty and emotion. This year we were treated to the dramatic talents of Chris M as he presented a captivating monologue from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The Junior School Massed Choir item, featuring students from across Years 3-6 was a powerful display of unity and teamwork, their energetic performance of highlights from Matilda was showstopper. Tickets are now on sale for Matilda Jr. Book early for what is sure to be an amazing production.

One of the many highlights of the evening was the enchanting “Lord of the Rings Extravaganza,” a breathtaking journey through the musical landscapes of Middle Earth. With the Festival Orchestra and College Choir at the helm, our students transported us to a world of fantasy and adventure, evoking the magic and wonder of Tolkien’s epic tale.

We take immense pride in the strength of our Music and Performing Arts programs at Oxley College, and Foundation Night was a shining example of the incredible depth of talent within our community. To our Performing Arts team and the dedicated staff who worked tirelessly behind the scenes, we extend our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support and commitment to excellence. Your passion and dedication have helped nurture and inspire our students, empowering them to achieve new heights of artistic expression.

As we reflect on this remarkable evening, let us celebrate the achievements of our students and the joy they have brought to our community.

Warm regards
