WHOLE - SCHOOL SEMESTER 2 PERFORMING ARTS SHOWCASE
On Wednesday 16th October, The Lakes South Morang College presented our second whole - school Performing Arts Showcase ‘ Curtain Call ’. All students worked very hard this Semester to get their performances ready for the evening and each item showcased the excitement and pride each student felt. For my Year 10 Elective class I chose Music and for our assignment we had a choice of learning a song and performing it. I chose to form a band. My band made a collective decision to perform “ We Will Rock You ”. At first we had some trouble learning our parts and playing together. We had a term to learn it but for the first few weeks we were messing around a bit and having fun. Half way through we had mastered it and we could perform it well. Time flew past and it had come up to the day we had to perform. A lot of us were a bit nervous and we had to do a few practices at the stage to make sure everything was right. We first played in front of our peers and friends where we had a few issues but they were all sorted before the show. When it was time to perform, I was nervous. This was the first time I had played in front of a very large crowd. Walking on stage was an experience, but when I sat down at my chair and got ready it was amazing and I had fun. I was smiling and laughing the whole time with all my friends. It was fun learning and playing with a band, it was a great experience. – Lucas M, Year 10 Firstly, I would like to state that every grade including Prep, Year 3, and Year 6 made an amazing effort to keep the audience entertained. They were OUTSTANDING! When the Prep ’ s came on stage, they all had smiling faces and with the extra help from the High School for their performance. I even enjoyed coming on stage myself, it was a once in a lifetime experience and everyone performing was SUPERB! It was amazing seeing children enjoying the stage and I bet the audience LOVED IT! My overall experience has to be 5 stars. It was really nice to see the children behaving when they were waiting for their turn to perform. You must be asking what was my favourite performance? Well, my favourite performance had to be the Time Warp. I loved how everyone was on stage performing and younger levels were listening to teachers for their positions. Overall I think it was BREATHTAKING!!

I was a little bit worried while I waited for my turn to perform. But I got to pair up with my friend and he helped me stay confident. He encouraged me to be brave and then when we danced together I felt ok dancing in front of everyone. Isaac M, Year 3
