Community of Schools Band Tour

The WBHS Year 10 Rock Band, Big Band Choir and Jazz Cats toured our Community of Schools Primary Schools. Over two days the ensembles visited Biddabah, Warners Bay, Eleebana and Valentine Primary Schools. 

Our students were given a very warm welcome. The WBHS ensembles played with aplomb wowing audiences with their skill and showmanship. Our audience eagerly joined in the musical fun, clapping, dancing and singing their way through the showcase.  This was a wonderful opportunity to make new friends and to pay a visit to much loved Primary School teachers and dearly missed friends.
