Several talented singers and dancers joined other pupils from more than 20 north coast and Mid North Coast schools at Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney Olympic Park for the epic event.

Creative and Performing Arts teacher Stuart Hettles said both staff and students had a wonderful time.

 “It was absolutely amazing. Seeing all of our students lift and perform at that level was stunning,” he said.

“It was a really big week, but very enjoyable. The feedback from the students was really positive. It was very tiring but an awesome experience.”

Mr Hettles said that, moving forward, the schools hoped to introduce more activities for their students to gain hands on experience.

“We want to do more extra curricular activities with our students,” he said.

“They all performed really well, particularly considering that they had to learn a piece of music that was in Latin.”
