Terara Times

What a great night! The massed choir sounded beautiful and Terara Public School were superb in their school choir presentation of Big Yellow Taxi. Mia and Grace were fabulous on percussion, and the duet from Susanna and Grace was fantastic. After all the hard work to learn the songs and the rehearsals to perfect the performance, the students were very excited and a little nervous before the lights went down. But when the stage lights came on, they were ready to sing and gave a great performance. Congratulations to all our primary students. You did a great job!

Last year our film, “The Promise”, won the Film by the Bay Film Festival and famous Australian Actor Bryan Brown had a lot of great things to say about it at the state-wide “Film by Invitation” event in Sydney earlier this year.

We have made a new film for this year’s festival called “The Perfect Record”, and it is all about detectives, family and pies. The synopsis for the film is as follows:

As the Pie Bandit returns to wreak havoc on the students of Terara, a retiring detective has one last chance to crack the case she could never solve.

We will be premiering our film at this Friday’s assembly.

Terara Public School has been selected as the official River Festival School for this year's Shoalhaven River Festival. Artist, Dora Rognvaldsdottir, has been working with our students to make lanterns to carry in the lantern parade during the festival. Dora has extended her generosity to include any adults who would like to join in a workshop to make the larger leading lanterns for the parade. Below is her invitation for any adults who would like to join in this wonderful activity. Please email her directly if you'd like to be involved.

Hey all keen creators and interested lantern makers,

Balgowlah North Concert Band will be performing for our students at Terara Public School next Monday, 16th September, at 2pm. They are undertaking a tour of the South Coast, playing at only a few schools, so we are very lucky to have them perform for us. It's bound to be a great show. Parents/carers are welcome to come along and see the show. There is no cost for this performance.
