Regional Finals for Ironside State School Senior Orchestra!

Charlotte's Senior Orchestra at Ironside State School got into the Regional Finals after competing in a championships on Tuesday. It was a massive last minute attempt by Trudy (teacher and conductor) to get all 60 students available and ready to compete gain the next night, as no-one expected them to make it to the finals :-)! It was a great surprise, and while they didn't win, they performed so beautifully! Here is them playing - they are so so good - and Trudy Weekes, who I went to school with (just a coincidence :-) did a great job conducting!

Oliver James - Movie Director

Ollie on Bass...

This is Master Oliver James C-C practising his double bass. He is starting to really get into it, which is great, because we had to nag him to practice at first :-) I think he will be the next John Butler for sure. Woodford here we come! The cool thing is, his Uncle Devon in Santa Cruz, California, USA also plays the double bass in a band called the Bluetail Flies.
