On Saturday the 17th Feb, our Music staff, along with 20 Elective Music students made their annual pilgrimage to Sydney for ‘ENCORE’ (The best of the 2017 Music Students performing in the Opera House). As it is such a long way to go, many other music inspired activities were organised. The students got to take in the professional production of “Mamma Mia—The Musical” before heading to Hard Rock Café for dinner and a look at all the classic rock memorabilia. After dinner we had a ferry ride around the harbour back to the Rocks area. The following day we spent the morning at ‘Forbes St Recording Studio’, a new studio where many Aussie artists are now recording. After a quick walk through Pitt St mall, it was time to get ready for the main event…….’ENCORE’. The students looked amazing all dressed up for their Opera House experience, and a great concert was presented.
These were a fantastic group of students to take away. For some, it was their first time to Sydney and they were blown away by what it has to offer.
To the students, THANKYOU for your fantastic maturity, behaviour and attitudes. I look forward to doing it again next year.
Mr Matt Fisher
