This year, our students embraced a range of artistic opportunities, shining across Music, Drama, dance and cultural celebrations.

The Epstein Singers delivered a standout performance at the Royal South Street Eisteddfod, while our Speech and Drama students excelled in various eisteddfods. We celebrated the outstanding efforts of all Barbreck students who performed at the Junior School Concert.  

Junior School students collaborated in Senior School events like Music Camp, the Spring Concert, and Bands Blast, building new skills and friendships. The Year 5 Cohort learned new woodwind, brass, or percussion instruments. They performed as a band in concerts and showed perseverance throughout the year. Both our Year 5 Concert Band and Barbreck Choir performed at the Victorian School Music Festival and received excellent feedback from the adjudicators. Congratulations to all musicians involved in musical band ensembles for their dedication and high achievements. 

Arts Week 2024 brought the community together in celebration of the Arts, with an emphasis on the rich traditions and culture of First Nations peoples. Through performance and visual art, our students immersed themselves in Indigenous stories and expressions, creating a meaningful connection to Australia’s heritage. 

The standard of creativity and capability in Barbreck has inspired us all. Our students have proven that the Arts are thriving in our community, and we look forward to another year filled with growth and success.
