Celebrating Our Senior Music Workshop Students
Congratulations to our talented students who recently took part in the Senior Music Workshop, a three-day event that brought together young musicians from across the region.
Throughout the workshop, students immersed themselves in a rich program of band rehearsals, specialist tutorials, and choir sessions, all designed to challenge and inspire them. The experience culminated in a spectacular final concert, where participants showcased the skills and confidence they had developed over the three days.
This annual event provides a wonderful opportunity for students to extend their musical abilities, learn from expert tutors, and collaborate with peers from other schools.
Speech and Drama : Wednesday morning 7.30am in the hall
Very exciting opportunities for children who enjoy performing or for parents who wish for their child to gain confidence.
LTK has been running speech and drama classes at Bulimba for 25 years.
Preps and year ones are taken to their classroom at the end of the lesson.
We have two age appropriate classes running at the same time by qualified performing art teachers.
