Fahl Garden Rock Concert Series – Wks 9 & 10
Our Rock Bands are rocking the garden like never before! Rock Band students have had the opportunity to play a complete 15 minute set for their peers in either recess or lunch in Wks 9 & 10.
Our talented bands aren’t just sticking to covers; they’re also showcasing their original compositions that are sure to blow you away! Plus, they’ve put their creative skills to work by designing captivating advertising posters for their bands (see below!)
If you haven’t caught this week’s performances, mark your calendars for Week 10 – Thursday 21 September and Friday 22 September, during recess and lunch. You won’t want to miss these electrifying shows!
A massive shoutout to our incredible Rock Band tutor team for guiding our students towards this real-world experience. We also extend our gratitude to Mr Joseph Montz, Head of Small Ensembles, and Mr David Wooltorton, Assistant Head of Small Ensembles, for their unwavering support.
