NAPA News - Week 3, Term 2, 2023
Dear NAPA Families,
PLEASE NOTE: CLASSES ON AS USUAL TONIGHT.
We hope you have all had a fantastic week. It is exciting to announce the cast of our Senior Tread the Boards play, Murder on the 518. We are now waiting for confirmation on the licence to perform our Pre-Senior Tread the Boards play and then we have completed our Playbill for the year. All production classes will then be immersed into rehearsals during class time and extra time closer to the performance dates. Tickets will be opened for each show as we get closer to the performance dates, so please stay tuned to our newsletter each week for these announcements.
Murder on the 518 - Senior Tread the Boards Cast Announcement
Congratulations Senior Tread the Boards’ students on your great auditions and gaining the roles that best suit your interpretations. Now the fun begins! Here is the cast in order of appearance. 🚂
Winter Uniforms Reminder
Just a reminder that we will close our online store for winter jumpers, T-shirts, and College Hoodies on the 6 May, so please get your orders in before the cut off date. College students, please note that you need to write how you want your name on the back of your hoodies eg your shortened version, nickname or your full name.
For everyone waiting for their Activated Industries order, we have been notified that they have been shipped and on their way, so please look out for the announcement of when you can pick them up.
Lost Property
I am blown away by the amount of dance shoes, dance wear and school uniform items in our lost property stand. It is puzzling how children are attending classes or their schools without them. Our stand is quite full for such an early part of the term, so please check it out this week as I will need to find new homes for these items after next week to create some space. The stand is just next to the couch in the games room.
Mother’s Day Raffle
The P+F are holding a Mother’s Day Raffle with amazing prizes including hair products package and a $100 voucher Precinct Brewing Co. Tickets will be available now until next Saturday, 13 May 2023, at the canteen.
Draw will be 13 May at 10:30am in front of the Canteen
1 ticket for $2
3 tickets for $5
10 tickets for $10
Performance Team Updates
Lots of exciting things coming up for our Performance Teams. Please ensure that you have read and noted all information from Miss Kim. All correspondence has been emailed but can also be found here:
Frozen Jr - Broadway Tweens Update
Our Frozen cast are moving through their work quickly, but it is imperative that students are also practicing at home. Choreography videos and access to the score/script can be found here:
Finding Nemo Jr - Broadway Kids Update
Congratulations to our Broadway Kids on their vocal auditions this weekend! We are so very proud of all of the students who were brave and stepped out of their comfort zones, we can’t wait to see more from you next weekend. A reminder that next weekend we will be continuing our auditions with the Dance and Acting components. While we encourage all students to learn one of the provided monologues (available on the Portal) please remember that these will be utilised as the Callback pieces and not all students will perform their monologue as part of their audition. We will however give all students opportunity to perform their monologue later on in the term should they wish so encourage everyone to keep practising hard this week!
Minis
Check out our Mini ballerinas. We are super impressed that they are working so hard and have the most beautiful dancers feet and legs.
Mini parents please check last weeks newsletter about winter dance attire. Dance wraps only please. This is also needed for health and safety as dance teachers can’t see body alignment under casual jackets and jumpers. However it has been great to see the tidy hair coming into classes. That’s a big thumbs up and thank you. Go minis!
Private Singing Lessons Reminder
We still have a few openings for private singing lessons. Please check last week’s newsletter for available time slots. If you wish to snap one of these time slots up, please email me and I will pass on your requests to the teachers.
Have a wonderful week ahead everyone,
Cheers,
Lynn & the NAPA Team
