Last week, our Year 11 and 12 Dance girls attended the event called Callback while our Year 12 drama girls went to Onstage. 

Watching Callback, the annual showcase where 2023 HSC students present their best dance performances, was a source of great inspiration for our current HSC dance students. Witnessing the dedication and skill of the performers provided valuable insights into the standards and expectations of HSC Dance assessments. Inspired by the talent on display, the St Pat’s HSC Dance students are motivated to strive for excellence in their own performances, aiming to reach Callbacks themselves next year. 

Attending Onstage, where HSC Drama students showcase their top performances and projects, was eye-opening for our HSC Drama students. They were drawn into the world of theatre, watching engaging performances and strong characters come to life on stage. Seeing their peers' dedication and talent gave them a better idea of what's expected by the HSC markers. Inspired by what they saw, our St Pat’s HSC drama students are excited to bring their own passion and skill to their performances. 

As the new school year unfolds, our CAPA co-curricular activities have resumed their lively cadence.

Last week, our Liturgy Band led the singing for our Ash Wednesday Mass, lifting the school community prayer to God.

Exciting news this year is the launch of Glee Club, happening every Friday lunchtime in J34. It's a place for students who enjoy performing to sing and dance together, adding a spark of fun to their Fridays. 

And let's not forget our existing clubs, always on the lookout for new members to share their talents. Rock Band meets on Mondays at lunch in the music rooms, the St Pat’s Ensemble rehearses on Tuesday mornings at 7:45, the College Choir gathers on Wednesday mornings at 7:45, Drama Club convenes on Wednesday lunchtime in the Drama room, and the Liturgy Band meets on Thursdays at lunch in the music rooms. Don't be shy! Join us for some enjoyable times ahead.

We look forward to sharing more information about our classroom learning and cocurricular groups with our wider community at our Open Day this Saturday. 

Have a wonderful week ahead!
