Everyone at school has been able to get going on practical work and even though it\u2019s been a very strange start to Term 2 we are really excited about the progress being made!

Year 9 students have been investigating dance music and in particular polyrhythmic dance rhythms of some African Cultures. This has resulted in some students recording themselves juggling egg shakers with their parents\/guardians to show their understanding of rhythms. It\u2019s great stuff! Year 11 students and Mr Goulter have been pushing Zoom meetings to their limit with some three part chord singing as part of their compositional studies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Virtual Bands<\/h3>\n<p>It is safe to say that we miss making music and to alleviate this we have started working hard on virtual bands. Our Year 9 and 11 classes have both decided to make\u00a0 virtual bands showing the repertoire that they are learning. Year 9 students will be recording Daft Punk\u2019s &#8211; Around the World and Year 11 students recording The Beatles \u2013 I Want To Hold Your Hand. The College Concert Band is also preparing a virtual performance of Eine Kleine Rock Music \u2013 A rocked up Mozart version. We will have the videos out in the near future so stay tuned for more information.<\/p>\n<h3>Virtual Choir<\/h3>\n<p>We have also started mixing and arranging the whole school choir entries for Jesus Lover of My Soul. If you have not seen it you are still able to view it as part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/schoolbox.stpatscollege.qld.edu.au\/homepage\/3551\">Week 5 Assembly<\/a>. We have had a phenomenal response from staff members being involved so look out for who is doing what in the video at upcoming assemblies.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/spc-townsville\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2020\/05\/WSC.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1888\" height=\"723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2020\/05\/WSC.png 1888w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2020\/05\/WSC-768x294.png 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2020\/05\/WSC-1536x588.png 1536w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2020\/05\/WSC-392x150.png 392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1888px) 100vw, 1888px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Head of Department \u2013 Visual Arts &amp; Exhibitions\u00a0 Harriet Geater-Johnson &nbsp; Art Challenge &#8211; Final Call We have had some really fun entries into the final art challenge.
