The Junior GPS Music Day of Excellence is an extraordinary day of music making, culminating in performances by junior students from all nine GPS schools in Choir, String Orchestra and Concert Band.
VICKI SARGENT This concert is dedicated to a long term staff member at St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace.
The 2019 Junior GPS Music Day of Excellence promises to be a memorable musical extravaganza.
Vicki Sargent was born to this world on September 17, 1962 and entered eternal life on October 28, 2007 following a fifteen year battle with breast cancer. After attending Lourdes Hill and three years at teachers' college, Vicki entered her first and final place of employment at St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace in 1983. Vicki had passion for the Arts and for Education. This passion and competence established her as a leading Visual Arts teacher. In 2001, she was appointed the first female member of the College Leadership Team – an achievement of which she was immensely proud. In the role of Director of Culture, Vicki had the responsibility of overseeing all co-curricular activities outside the classroom that was not sport related.

Acknowledgements
Vicki left her charismatic mark on the hearts and minds of many young men in her care because she was able to do the simple but arduous task of seeing the world and responding to it with incredible energy and insight. Her influence has shaped the future of so many old boys and the memories held dear will never be erased. Her vision in cultural pursuits for boys elevated not only the Gregory Terrace community to many artistic and cultural pinnacles, but also the extended GPS and CIC schools. We, therefore, dedicate this annual concert to Vicki who led “An Extraordinary Life”.
