Well done to all the students who participated in the 10th Anniversary of Captivate Choir at Quaycentre, Sydney Olympic Park
Students have been rehearsing since February, both during recess and lunch breaks and also at formal off-site rehearsals with other students in the Diocese as well as during the school holidays.
We also acknowledge and thank Mrs Serrao, Mrs Collimore and Mrs Purtell for all their time and effort during all the organisation, rehearsals and night time performances.
CAPTIVATE is the creative and performing arts program for Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta. It provides learning and performance opportunities for students and connects them with Australia's leading creative arts professionals and their wealth of experience and networks.
All students, regardless of prior experience or the location of their school, can access specialist learning in the arts.
The CAPTIVATE Combined Primary Choir is open to all students from Years 3-6. No audition is required. Students participate as part of a school group (e.g. school choir) and meet together to practise singing as a group, grow musically and have fun.

Year 5 had the sweetest Science lesson yesterday. As part of their Science unit, Year 5 made gelato. While mixing, cooking and adding flavour, they explored how ingredients change from solids to liquids to gases, and identified which changes in the cooking process are reversible and which are irreversible. Lots of curious questions, lots of learning… and lots of smiles! Science never tasted so good!
