“Thank you for the
music, the songs we’re singing. Thanks for all the joy they’re
bringing…” – a loved theme song for the choir.
Choir gives
students the opportunity to experience and organise sound
through singing, exploring concepts such as pitch, rhythm, tone,
colour, listening, harmony, movement and performance. In our
choir we share in voice, which brings about a great deal of
happiness and enjoyment as we learn a variety of songs for
different occasions – Easter, Anzac Day, Peer Support, Christmas
and for the Wollongong Schools Combined Choral Festival.
This Festival allows children to perform with
400 other children from different schools under a combined
conductor with professional accompaniment.

In 2006, Mrs Bedwell organised the senior
choir (all Year 6 students) to take part in Southern Stars.
Southern Stars was a
brilliant extravaganza from start to finish and what makes it
truly spectacular is the fact that all performers,
dancers, musicians and choir are all students of local Public
Schools. The Southern Stars was a truly professional event and
will be remembered by all who took part for many years to come.
Our students played
their part with our senior choir group thoroughly enjoying their
performances. Over the three days and six performances the
students sang strongly and their outstanding behaviour at all
times was a credit to themselves and our school. |
