Drama Fest 2023
What an exciting time we had at the Drama Fest Finals on Wednesday! Congratulations to all students who competed in the Semi-Finals and Finals on their dedication in preparing for their performances. It was thoroughly entertaining, and so inspiring to see you in character captivating your audience. Our guest adjudicators
Mrs Jo Cosgrove (past teacher) and Mrs Sandra Neal were most impressed with the high standard. We are so grateful to Mrs McVeigh for her vision, creativity, skill and time in organizing this hugely successful event and providing this invaluable opportunity for our school community. It was wonderful for all students to be able to participate in singing with their year levels in between the performances. Congratulations also to our Choir who enjoyed the opportunity to perform at the Drama Fest Finals, too.
