Last Wednesday evening, the Senior School came together to celebrate MADE for Stage, our biannual showcase of Music, Art, Dance, Drama, and Entertainment. The evening highlighted the incredible breadth of student talent across the Creative Arts, and the energy in the auditorium was electric.

I want to commend the Year 12 Entertainment students, who not only operated behind the scenes but also took to the spotlight as engaging MCs, delivering humorous skits and keeping the show flowing. Our Drama students also presented two original works, both recently performed at Parramatta Riverside Theatres. One of these, written by Year 11 student Stella, was a finalist in the Sharp Short Scriptwriting Competition — a fantastic achievement.

A standout moment of the night was the performance by two Year 9 rappers, Nathaniel and Anvesh, who delivered a funk-inspired version of Lose Yourself by Eminem with the support of our Stage Band. It brought the house down and had the students in the audience especially excited.

We also revealed the next College Musical — Charlie and the Chocolate Factory — which will be staged in May 2026. Planning is already underway and we’re looking forward to another incredible production.

Thank you to all staff who contributed to this memorable evening. Events like this are only possible through the hard work and collaboration of a committed team.
