As we step into a brand-new year in Performing Arts, there is a real sense of energy across our department. At lunchtimes the rehearsal rooms are already buzzing, and we are delighted to be starting the year with so much enthusiasm from our students.
Performing Arts Private Tuition
We are thrilled to share a significant milestone: we have now reached 100 students taking part in Performing Arts private lessons. This is a fantastic achievement for our college and a testament to the growing passion for the Acting, Dance and Music among our students. We look forward to seeing their progress throughout the year in our concerts and events.
Choir & Levande Highlands Lunch
One of the highlights of this term so far has been the special afternoon where the Choir was joined by members of our local Retirement Village for lunch and a sing-along. It was an event filled with pure enjoyment, music, laughter, and connection across generations. Opportunities like this not only allow our students to share their talents but also to experience the joy that music brings to the wider community.
St Catherine Campus
We are delighted to be preparing our new campus space, which will soon be ready to welcome private tuition students and host performing arts activities. This marks an important step forward in the continued growth and development of Performing Arts within the Kolbe community.
This year promises to be packed with exciting opportunities for students to get involved and develop their skills. From soirees and showcases to production auditions and community events, there will be something for everyone. We cannot wait to see our students shine on stage and continue building a vibrant and inclusive Performing Arts community.
