Junior and Senior Piano Competitions 

On Friday Night last week, the Junior and Senior Piano Competitions were hosted in Edwards Auditorium and adjudicated by concert pianist and composer Daniel Rojas. In this special event for auditioned pianists, students were able to perform their pieces that they had worked on for many months. The standard of music performance was very high, with the adjudicator finding each division very difficult to award. 

Congratulations to all performers, and particularly Yr 3 student Sienna Lepone and Yr 12 student Jiaqi (Ahnu) Guan, who were the overall winners for the Junior and Senior Piano Competitions.
