Year 9 and 10 Production – Thespians In Search of a Live Audience
The Performing Arts are a distinctive part of the Tintern Grammar co-curricular program and play an integral role in providing ways of expressing and representing ideas, emotions, and values in social and cultural perspectives. This year’s production was a collection of short monologues, several one act plays, a filmed sitcom, two dances and a vocal number.
Students were involved in all aspects of the production, on and off stage. They embraced the opportunities offered in acting, dancing, designing, stage managing, sound and lighting design, as well as, directing and choreographing. In addition to the educational opportunities, the students developed new friendships and strengthened existing ones. The support offered by these bonds will hold them in good stead for their senior years and into their future endeavours.

The Arts Lounge – JOY 40cm x 40cm exhibition
Local artists were invited to enter submissions for the 40 x40 cm Exhibition exploring the theme of JOY for the Arts Lounge at Wyreena Art Gallery. We are thrilled that Scar Wild ( Year 9) has been successful in her stunning submission of her work titled ‘Llawenyd’
Congratulations Scar on your exceptional work – your use of oil paint on the black canvas really does represent Joy.
Scar’s personal artist statement explains –
Llawenyd is a reflection of my own personal growth. Through the incorporation of flora that surrounds me in real life, I have presented my personal head space visually. Llawenyd, the welsh word for joy, represents the connection to my cultural roots and my love for where I have come from. My growth is a direct response to the way I was raised, that is to love fiercely and kindly , and to value yourself as a vessel of good.
The 40 x 40 JOY exhibition runs from 16 November 2022 – 4 February 2023 at the Maroondah City Council , Wyreena Community Arts Centre.
