Musical Evening

June 21, 2017

Last Friday the theatre hosted the Junior Music Concert.

Having a theatre is a valuable tool for students of all ages. It provides an outlet for making creative choices, and interpreting the material in expressive ways that are the essence of drama and music.

For those lucky enough to be in attendance, the Junior and Middle School concert was brilliant last Friday night. Well done to all our students on an outstanding evening.

St Stephen’s School Music Department

On Friday evening we held our first Senior Concert for the year.

The audience was treated to a huge variety of music from Concert Band, Orchestra, Swing Band, Fellas and Stellas Barbershop, String Quartet, Guitar Ensembles and the St Stephen’s Singers. Our students performed with passion, pride and professionalism. Being a part of the Music program at St Stephen’s School equips your child with excellent organisation and time management skills. It gives them the opportunity to be a part of a team working at an elite level and develops creativity and performing skills that can be transferred to every walk of life. Research has shown that learning a musical instrument and singing creates new neural pathways in the brain and leads to academic success across all subjects. It’s never too late to become involved with the music program at St Stephen’s!

Please visit the Music page of the Performing Arts portal on the school website for more information.

 

Al Fresco Fridays are back

May 7, 2017

Students and staff relax in the perfect weather on the quad while enjoying the warmth and precision of a musical ensemble.

Past Student Benjamin Jeyabalan and his band ‘Young Amity’ performed for our students during lunchtime. Ben met his band members during his leavers break to Ningaloo and they quickly formed a connection.

Students enjoyed the opportunity to listen to some relaxed and upbeat songs.

Many thanks to Ben and Young Amity for showcasing excellence in the Arts at St. Stephen’s School

What a magnificent end to the week!
