IPSHA PERFORMING ARTS FESTIVAL SYDNEY TOWN HALL On the evening of the 22nd of August, students of St Spyridon College joined students from All Saints Grammar, Broughton Anglican, Danebank, Kincoppal, Macarthur Anglican, Rouse Hill Anglican and Scone Grammar School for a musical spectacular. The students of St Spyridon College participated in the combined choir item with 500 other students as well as performed their own musical theatre piece from Annie. I wish to commend the Principal, Mrs Synesios and Mrs Coyne for preparing the students and for conducting one of the combined choir items. Your attention to detail was evident and ensured for exceptional performances. Thank you to Mr Volas, Mr Davies and Miss McCarthy for supervising the students and to Anne–Marie Aroney and Mia Paras for welcoming the VIPs.

Christ wishes us to unite ourselves to Him and He waits outside the door of our soul. It is up to us to accept the divine grace. Only divide grace can change us. On our own we can do nothing. Grace will give us everything. For our part, we should attempt to reduce our egotism and self-centeredness and to have humility. If we give ourselves to Christ, all the negative reactions of body and soul go away. St Porphyrios Mrs E. Stefanou-Haag
