Our Creative Arts Showcase at the Concourse last Thursday evening, was again a fabulous success with the talent of our girls evident. The night showcased the Co-curricular programs in Music and Dance as well as elective classes in Drama and Music. The night started with the Mercy Concert band and then followed with the non-stop action of rock bands, ensembles, drama items, and dancing. To finish the evening the whole of Year 7 sang as a choir and rocked to “Can’t Stop the Feeling” accompanied by the Mercy College Stage band.
Congratulations to all the performers and thanks to all the backstage crew for their support. Thank you also to the teachers and tutors who have taught, encouraged and mentored and the students.
