Greenvale Primary School

Every year we learn the ‘Music Count Us In’ song, which was created by selected students from different states of Australia and recorded by students under the guidance of the Program Ambassador John Foreman. Foundations, Year 1s and 2s have been practising the song ‘We Are’ in preparation for Thursday 7th November at 12.30 when thousands of students around Australia will be performing the same song at the same time.

We have our own moves to the song but the students enjoyed attempting sign language (Auslan version), which can be seen on YouTube.

Well done to the cast and classes of the DreamNation Musical, which was held this week. They performed with great confidence and the shows were thoroughly enjoyed by the School Community. All children have been practising hard for 2 terms and the cast also practised during lunch hours. They proved we have many talented children in this school. I’m so proud of you all!

The Cast of our Musical ‘DreamNation’ have been practising at lunchtimes and are progressing very well.

Classes have also been practising their songs for the concerts during Performing Arts. All students will be performing.

The dates for the concerts will be Tuesday 25th June and Thursday 27th June (1 concert in the morning and the other in the afternoon).

The concerts will be held during school hours to ensure that all students have the opportunity to participate.

Important note: Students with the surnames starting from A to K will be performing on Tuesday only.

Students with the surnames starting from L to Z will be performing on Thursday only.

The cast members know which concerts they’ll be performing in.

More information on how to obtain tickets for the shows will be sent home next term.

Congratulations to the school Choir for a wonderful performance on the night of our Art Show last week. They started their performance with a ‘Waka Waka’ dance then sang ‘I have a dream’, ‘Candyman’, ‘Put a little love in your heart’, ‘A million dreams’ and ‘One Song’. Special thanks to the soloists who were courageous enough to sing in front of the large audience in the Gym on their own, some of them doing so for the first time.
