This year students have been challenged to set a personal reading goal. If they meet this goal during the 10 weeks, then they will have completed the challenge! Students can decide on a reading goal on their own, or can set one after talking with their classroom teacher or librarian. For some students a challenge may be completing one book, for others it may be finishing 100. Graphic novels, magazines, picture books, text books, novels, even audio books can all be counted!
"Rehearsals are well underway for the College production of Pippin. Students have been working hard on dancing and singing, and things look positive. We have some talented students in the lead roles and supporting players with great vocal talent. The choreography as well is led by some very well-tuned dance students. The sets are being created by a fantastic artistic team and constructed by Bevan Scramm and his crew.
Pippin tells the story of a young man, fresh from his studies at University, determined to live a fulfilling life and do the extraordinary. As he moves through his life, he realises that the promise of an exciting life isn't all it is cracked up to be. With some fabulous choreography and singing, Pippin will be a show you will never forget.
Tickets are on sale now through the Paranaple Arts Centre. Avoid disappointment, don't miss out, and get your tickets early! Adults - $30.00 Concession - $22.00 Student - $20.00
