“Show Time!” was a themed event which the local public schools invited the community to enjoy as they shared films, songs and performances that showcased the quality of public education.
As guests arrived they were welcomed by a silent movie style slide show complete with piano music, and were able to buy snacks for their enjoyment from the candy bar run by the combined efforts of the schools’ P&Cs.
Each school had made a film dedicated to the programs, class-work and activities of school life, with plenty of laughs thrown in.
Bombala Public School then took to the stage at the end of the first half of the program with a rendition of the Credence Clearwater Revival classic “Bad Moon Rising” before a brief intermission.
The second half began with a bang as Delegate Public School students sang and performed a song called “Pool Party” which will feature in their upcoming musical “Pirates and Mermaids”.
Then it was the High School’s turn to shine with Ebony Ingram performing her original monologue “Winter Flowers” and Renee Ingram singing “Famous in a Small Town”. Both solo acts were fantastic and really showed how talented our local young people are.
The crowd was then treated to an entertaining group drama performance called “Any Which Way” by Year 11 and 12 students.
The night concluded with a film reflecting the learning opportunities enjoyed by our high school students to the entertainment of all.
A very big thank you to the crowd that attended on the night, to the students, staff and parents as well as those who contributed or participated in any way to make the night a success.
