At the start of the year our committee of 10 members set out to incorporate more performance opportunities for students in the school and have a greater presence across all cultural faculties. In term one we started strong with bi-weekly open mic/themed concerts for our musicianship students. These concerts involved many students across all year levels and genuinely showcased the student body talent from music to stand-up comedy. In term two, the cultural committee organised and hosted Havestock and the School talent show. Many members of the committee were involved in both of these events and we were proud of our own Jude Snee and Phillip Kim who brought home the bacon with first place at the annual Talent Show! Havestock 2018 At the end of term three the music department held the annual Music Festival. Many members of the cultural committee represented various groups and showcased their own talents. The committee have been an absolute pleasure to work with this year. Every person on this committee has done their part and my co-committee leader Drew and I sincerely thank Mr Cargill and Mrs Wilson for their support and leadership this year. It was the ten year anniversary of Havestock, originally founded by Mr Tim Walton, as an idea to showcase our musicianship students and rockquest contestants. The students and staff dressed up in 60’s attire and grooved to the tunes provided by student bands “Not Bad” “Sally Tune” and “Minor Forty Niner” to name a few. There was a special appearance by the staff band “Penalty Sheet” whose Mustang Sally had the crowds singing and dancing. Lizzie Harvey 40
