Recently, our college choir had the incredible opportunity to compete in the Royal South Street Society Choral Competition in Ballarat. On the day of the competition, we truly became a strong, united team, facing challenges together while also embracing the fun of the experience. The long bus ride was filled with singing, laughter, and snacking on lollies, fuelling both our excitement and a bit of a sugar rush!
When we arrived, the air was buzzing with nerves and anticipation, and we headed straight to the dressing room for rehearsals. However, an unexpected hurdle awaited us—we learned that we couldn’t use our backing track for one of our songs. But in true team spirit, we adapted quickly, coming together to perform with confidence, unity, and, above all, joy. Our passion shone through as we sang ‘Queen Medley’, ‘We Are Australian’, and ‘Let's Go to the Movies’, and this energy led us to secure first place!
The day was not just about winning, but about the friendships, fun, and shared passion that made the experience truly unforgettable. We’d like to extend our deepest thanks to Ms Mileto, who accompanied and encouraged us throughout the day, and to Ms Russo, who has generously supported and led us not only on the day but throughout the entire year.
Congratulations to everyone involved—what an amazing achievement!
