With limited performance opportunities, capacity audience limits, and the challenge of managing absences during Term 1, we were delighted to see our Semester 1 KPA Showcase come to life on the evening of Thursday 5 May at the Kalamunda Performing Arts Centre. Over 100 students from both our General and Music streams participated in the presentation and all involved performed to the best of their ability to an appreciative audience. There was a mix of drama, music and dance, including a collaboration involving all Year 8 students, our Year 7 General students’ first KPA performance, and a selection of solos, small group, and whole cohort performances.

All students displayed wonderful professionalism and peer support, and it was particularly delightful to see the Year 10 students mentoring our Year 7 students as they confronted nerves and anxiety about performing in front of such large crowd for the first time.

It was great to collaborate with Michelle Vivian and Marcus Roberts in curating such a diverse show and we look forward to doing so again.
