Music at Mary Bailey & Del Monte

Music at Mary Bailey House (Curricular)

Mary Bailey House children are excitedly practising for the Community Carols and End of Year Concert. The children continue to work hard to learn all the words to the songs and sing beautifully with confidence. We cannot wait to show our families and community what we do in Music time!  Please be sure to read correspondence from the Music to be sent in the week ahead with important information about the Community Carols performance on the Del monte grounds. As valued members of our Santa community, we heavily encourage our Mary Bailey families to attend the Fra Angelico Festival to see all the opportunities afforded to students who continue through on the P-12 journey with us.

Music at Del Monte (Curricular)

Del Monte music students have been busy little performers, and we hope our audiences have enjoyed all that we’ve prepared! From the Year 4 Showcase on Wednesday; Grandparents Day on Thursday; and on Friday the Fra Angelico Festival! And the year’s not through! Still to come are our Thanksgiving Mass and Community Carols where will perform some more, in addition to Speech Night which will feature our Year 4 Strings and guest percussionists. It has been lovely to wind up the year on such a celebratory note.

Important information: Fra Angelica Arts Festival

As per communications that were sent earlier this term, our inaugural Fra Angelico festival is promising to be a highlight of the year, and an opportunity to showcase all the singing and playing that happens in Curriculum Music at Del Monte. Every child from Prep to Year 6 will be playing and/or singing!  Please refer to the official communications, summarised below for quick reference:

5:00pm – 6:00pm | Del Monte Ensembles are performing 
6:15pm – 7:00pm | Gioia House Ensembles & Sinfonietta are performing 
7:15pm – 7:30pm | Senior Taiko Ensemble is performing
8:15pm – 8:45pm | Senior Stage & Rock Bands are performing 

All students are to present to the communicated meeting point no later than 15 minutes prior to their set time. Parents are to sign out students at the end of the respective session from the Back Stage meeting point.  

Please note, that if a child is not signed for by a guardian or adult delegate at the end of their session, they are not able to be released back into the Festival for reasons of Duty of Care.  We thank parents for arriving promptly at both the drop off and pick up times, and for your patience as we navigate the likely congestion at these peak times.  

We hope you have a wonderful festival!
