The Melbourne International Comedy Festival Class Clowns Gold Coast workshop and regional heat was an excellent afternoon and evening. 7 students took part and did themselves and the school proud. They were up against students from Faith Lutheran College, St Martha's and a student from Byron Bay. Amy Hyde, Education Producer at HOTA said, ‘Your students were so well rehearsed. They did incredibly well. In the end the top 5 were each 1 point apart.’

Phoenix Yr, 8 received a Wildcard place for the State Final in Brisbane at the Powerhouse. He got to participate in another workshop with a pro comic and the State final where he competed against kids from Cairns, Sunshine Coast, Brisbane and Byron for a place in the National Final. Phoenix went amazingly well and was invited to participate in another workshop at the Brunswick Picture House and perform in a show there. Unbeknownst to us, he was in the running for another state finals place - which he WON - and now will fly to Sydney to do ANOTHER workshop and show at the Sydney Comedy Store. Congratulations Phoenix!!
