Congratulations to the Year 8 Elective Music for their performance of High School Musical Jr. on Thursday night. The audience loved the energy and joined in on many of the songs. Thank you to the Year 8 Dance students who provided some of the choreography for the Music girls to learn, taking into consideration that they are music students, not dance students. Thanks to the theatre team and the Year 11 VET students for providing lighting, sound, and stage help. Massive thanks to Ms Ashton for her producing and directing of the show. It was a wonderful collaboration of skills, and the girls should be immensely proud of their performance.
