Our wonderful String Quartet played the final music performance for 2019, on the evening of the last day of school no less, at the annual Mayor’s Christmas Party at Strathfield Council Town Hall. The girls played for almost two hours providing musical entertainment as the backdrop to almost 200 local dignitaries and people who have served the community throughout 2019.
2019 turned out to be a very big year for the Music Program at Strathfield. Our Choirs, Orchestra, Stage Band, String Quartet and Percussion Ensemble went out and performed fifteen times in the community throughout 2019 at a wide variety of venues and events, including Jesmond Aged Care Centre, Bunnings, Band Workshops, In Concert - Sydney Town Hall, School’s Spectacular, Citizenship Ceremonies, in addition to our regular annual Creating Horizons, Musicale’ and Piano Night concerts at the school.
The Artisans group, along with our Visual Arts students were equally as busy, producing a large mural at Chalmers Road School as well as our annual Art Mart and Art Installation in the Creative Arts Quad at school.
We finished off the year with a celebratory Hawaiian Shirt Party and BBQ in the Creative Arts Quad. 130 students participated as members of the Music Ensemble Program and Artisans Visual Arts group in 2019.
