Last weekend was a busy weekend for the Music Department. We had six middle college students attend the State Honours Ensemble Programme (SHEP) in conjunction with the Queensland Conservatorium of Music and Griffith University. The students rehearsed at various locations around Brisbane working with renowned conductors. The weekend culminated in showcase concerts on Sunday at the prestigious Queensland Conservatorium of Music. Congratulations to Jada Baker, Ayrisa Jones, Rachel Monroe, Jax Bautista, Erin Lacey & Phoebe Struckett.

While that was happening on Saturday we were undertaking a major fundraising event for the upcoming New Zealand Music Tour. We took over the Sausage Sizzle at Bunnings Caloundra! The Pacific Jazz Ensemble was also there entertaining the shoppers as they entered the store and while they waited for their sausages! The students of the Jazz Ensembles did an amazing job, playing for around 3 hours in very hot conditions.  Congratulations to all of our musicians and volunteers!
