Theatre Production
The four major drama productions during the year - Senior School Musical (Term 1); Middle School Musical (Term 2); Senior School Play (Term 3); Middle School Play (Term 4) - are supported by a committed group of students, staff and parents who form the Theatre Production crew. The crew is responsible for the building of sets. Students (Yr7-10) will participate in a sport/activity, while also belonging to the Theatre Production team. Students in years 11 and 12 can select it as their compulsory program in either Summer or Winter (not both). Students can work on more than one production, or may choose to focus on one production only. Construction is done on weekdays after School, and also on a Saturday afternoon at the School's factory. It is a great way to learn skills and become part of a production.
