3 Days Left

Today we had a number of run-throughs of our performance components with all Grade 6s present. This component needs a lot of work in the form of memorisation, volume, passion, and gestures.

The remainder of the day was used by groups to work on various components as needed by them. Many used this time to work on their display boards. We also began another practice round of the oral components. Students should have their poem/rap memorised for tomorrow. They should also be working on memorising their cue cards.

Students are reminded exhibition work must be completed in class and not for homework.

Students should bring in refreshments for exhibition.

Those who are participating in the Silent Dance tomorrow may wear casual clothes.
