Bell Shakespeare
St Aloysius recently hosted the wonderful Bell Shakespeare company, to perform to our Year 8, 9 and 10 students. This falls within our current units of studies, in each of the year groups, which have been focusing on Shakspeare, his world and his works. The performers invited some students to engage with the performance, which was very enjoyable for the audience.

Festival of Voices Performance
Recently, the St Aloysius Singers performed in the Young Tasmania Sings concert at Federation Concert Hall for the Festival of Voices. The singers performed in six songs, including two with the Tasmanian Youth Orchestra. The experience was inspiring, engaging, educational and a lot of fun!
