NAPA News - Week 5, Term 4, 2024
IT’S SPOOKY SEASON! Happy ‘Halloween week’ to those who celebrate. This year we will be celebrating by having a dress up competition!
HALLOWEEN DRESS UP
All students are encouraged to dress up this week and embrace the Halloween festivities. We will have 2 best dressed winners which will be announced in next week’s newsletter.
Please ensure that your child’s costume still allows them to take part in their classes (especially dance and acrobatics) as it is still all systems go!
Seussical Kids
Tickets for our Broadway Kids production of Seussical are now live! We are so excited to see our little superstars up on stage. Seussical is one of my favourite shows and I’m so happy to see another generation of cherubs enjoying this fabulous show. Here are some pictures from our previous Seussical production… who can you spot??
Musical theatre exams
Congratulations to all of our students who completed their Trinity Guildhall Musical Theatre exams! You all made us so proud, and I can’t wait to receive your results, as I know they are going to be excellent!

SEUSSICAL T-SHIRTS
Seussical cast t-shirts are now live in your parent portal. These need to be paid and ordered by 12pm, 30 October to allow us time to receive them in time for the show. We have had to raise the price slightly to $35 due to the multiple colours in the logo.
Have a great week ALL!
Kim and The NAPA Team
What a huge few weeks it has been at NAPA! Our competition season has certainly kept us busy, and we are incredibly proud of the way our students have represented the studio. Beyond the results, it has been wonderful to see the growth, teamwork, resilience and support for one another that comes from getting out on stage and putting all that hard work into practice. A massive congratulations to every student who performed, and a big thank you to our teachers and families for everything that goes on behind the scenes to make these weeks possible.
And there is certainly no slowing down just yet! We are now heading into an exciting few weeks of productions, with Bring It On and The Jungle Book Kids both getting ready to hit the stage. There is so much happening across the studio, and we can’t wait to see all of that rehearsal-room work come to life!
A little reminder as we head into production season: there will be some changes to our regular timetable during production weeks to accommodate rehearsals, performances and staff commitments. Please keep a close eye on your emails and studio correspondence, as we will communicate any class changes, cancellations or adjustments as early as possible.
It’s a busy time of year, but also one of our favourites with lots of opportunities to perform, learn, support our NAPA friends and celebrate what our students have been working towards. Thank you, as always, for staying on top of communication and for being part of our wonderful NAPA community.
Now, onto this week’s news!
