After submitting lengthy music audition tapes, Olive Whalen and Griffin Light-Law (Year 11 students) were selected to attend the four day Australian Honours Ensemble Program (AHEP) at the The Conservatory of Music in Brisbane.

Over 1000 students auditioned for this prestigious program, with just over 250 students selected.

Olive and Griffin were able to extend their instrumental skills and were challenged with playing at a very high calibre of music, surrounded by peers selected from across the State.

This was their second time to be selected for and complete AHEP - a great achievement for not only them but for PBC and their amazing Instrumental Music teachers.
