Performing Arts

Our Music Recitals are filled with sensational performances that include a variety of instrumental and vocal performances. School Assemblies are student-led, featuring upper Primary students playing the National Anthem, and have provided the opportunity for weekly solo performances. All choirs and musical ensembles perform at our Music Assemblies. In Term 1, the Barbreck community gathered at St. John’s Anglican Church to celebrate Easter through singing, prayers, and instrumental music. The Service was brought to life by contributions from the Epstein Singers and Year 6 String Trio. The Special Visitors’ Day in Term 2 was a highlight, providing our Prep to Year 3 students the opportunity to perform to an audience. The Concert opened with Petit and Year 2 Strings, followed by a special solo item. The lower Primary girls loved singing Peace Like a River, which involved special visitor participation, The Barrier Reef, and Welcome the Day (Year 3). In Term 3, the Gala Concert featured performances from the Epstein Singers and Barbreck Choir, accompanied by the Junior School Percussion Ensemble. These choirs participated in a Combined Choral item singing Out There with the Senior School girls. Our string players played Wildfire, in the Massed String item. Music is an essential part of our School culture. Each girl has contributed to this magical experience. Thank you to all students for being so inspiring and sharing your music with us in 2022. All of our ensembles shined at the Barbreck Concert in Term 4. It was a beautiful way to end the year.
