Director of Culture | Mr Matt Cocking

Madagascar Jr 

With three sold out shows under their belts, I think we can say that our Middle School Musical cast members have gained some very valuable experience. Thank you to the many parent helpers who stepped up to assist whether it was behind the scenes or on the evenings with programs, tickets and at the bar.  

Thank you also to the parents and friends who have sent in some beautiful emails. We certainly appreciate you taking the time to acknowledge the hard work from both our production team and our talented students.

Debating 

Congratulations to Terrace Debating Vice Captain Alex Sullivan who will be representing Queensland (and Terrace) at the National School Debating Championship this weekend in Darwin. We wish him clear thought and speech.  The next step is selection as a member in the World Debating Championships.

Theatresports 

Theatresports 2019 kicked off in Term 1 with two workshops led by the training director of ImproMafia, Camelia Percy. During the workshop, our budding “Theatresporters” were taught the basic foundational principles of improvisation. From there, students were allocated into their teams, and since late Term 1 have spent time training with their respective coaches. Our Senior 2 team competed this week at Marist College Ashgrove. They were victorious and will now proceed to the next round. Terrace will host our Senior 1 team on 21 May at 7pm in the Edmund Rice Theatre. Please come along to support them. 

Rostrum – Voice of Youth

The next round of the Rostrum Voice of Youth competition will be held this Saturday at Terrace.  We have three students competing and we wish them all the very best.

Chess

Good luck to the 12 Chess students who will be competing in the Interschool Chess Competition at Churchie next Tuesday.  We wish these young men well as they face some formidable opponents.
