Congratulations to all who participated in Mid-Winter Melodies. Once again, students sang, played, danced and performed to a sold-out crowd in a beautifully decorated MP1. The Hospitality students prepared a delectable supper which was enjoyed by all while listening to performances from College ensembles and choirs, solos and small groups.  Well done to the many people involved in making this night a magical and enjoyable event, we cannot thank you enough.

Last month, the Show Choir, the Events Choir and other soloists performed wonderfully for the residents of the Pinewoods Aged Care Facility. The residents and staff were so appreciative of the students’ performances and dearly loved that the students took time to speak with them and give them gifts. The Music Department is proud of how the students conducted themselves and represented the College in such an admirable way, and we are grateful to them for their sharing their gifts.

There are still a number of Instrumental Music Recitals to come this term, and we look forward to them as well as the following upcoming events:

• Senior Strings performances at Warner Village Shopping Centre and Albany Creek Central Shopping Centre – Thursday 19th September
• Strings in Spring – Tuesday 22nd October
• St Columban’s Concert Band Spectacular
• Prestige Music Fest
