With shows continually cancelled or postponed by COVID-19 and lockdowns, Sunbury Downs College might have felt hopelessly devoted to putting on their show, Grease the Musical.
Last week, they finally could – and they felt “relieved”.
Show producer Shobana Sebastian said the college was proud to present their long awaited annual musical.
“School staff and students have been hard at work since term one in preparation for our first show back on school grounds since 2017,” she said.
“Students across all year levels were involved both on and off stage, working together seamlessly to present an extremely joy-filled experience for all.
“We were privileged to stage our premiere performance to a delighted audience of primary school students from Holy Trinity, Sunbury West, Goonawarra, Diggers Rest, Killara and Kismet Park Primary Schools together with several hundred people from the community.”
She said the persistence and dedication of the students, in the face of many setbacks, was inspiring to witness and congratulated all involved.
“Students are to be commended for their exponential growth in confidence, resilience, character, kindness and leadership,” she said.
