Autumn 2010 - St Luke's Anglican School

THESTLUKE’SWAY Autumn Edition 2010
Shakespeare Comes
to Life
‘But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? 
It is the east, and Juliet
is the sun?’ Or is it the light from the Year 6 Shakespearian players as they
performed so brightly? Those who attended either of the Year 6 theatre
restaurant evenings will attest that it was the latter.
The performances of Year 6 students as they take on the characters from both
Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet were just outstanding. Both classes performed
selected scenes from the plays with Mr Cathcart narrating to fill in the gaps for
the audience. Mr Farthing headed up the backstage production, and when the
talents of the staff and students came together the outcome was nothing short
of fantastic.
To add to the evening, the audience was treated to a twocourse
meal served by the non-performing class. The two
nights were a smashing success, and it is no wonder that
the Year 5 students are already keen for their opportunity to
perform for family and friends next year.
Lions
Youth of the Year
Quest
Stephanie Smith and Charlotte Kelly
represented St Luke’s Anglican School
at the Club Judging of the Lions Youth
of the Year Quest at a recent Hinkler
Lions meeting. Competing against
four other students, the girls were
required to speak for two minutes on
each of two impromptu topics as well
as make a speech of five minutes
on individually chosen topics. All
contestants performed very well.
The overall results for the evening
were based upon the speaking
section, an interview and overall
school and community involvement.
Charlotte Kelly was announced the
winner and she proceeded to zone
judging on 6 March where she competed against six other Year 12
students from Bundaberg and District. Congratulations must go to
both students who entered this contest, but in particular to Charlotte.
