The State Honours Ensemble Program is a Queensland-wide music program. Eligible students are nominated by their music teacher, just like PE teachers nominate students for Port Curtis or Capricornia trials. Then students are selected to participate by a selection committee or panel of judges, and then they travel from all over the state to perform as part of the State Honours Ensemble Program. This year, two of our Calliope SS students participated in SHEP in Longreach, over an epic weekend of rehearsals and performances with top musicians in Queensland. Our music teachers would like to say a super big thank you to the families who took them all the way out to Longreach to participate, as our students simply wouldn’t have been able to participate without your support! Special congratulations go to Lexi Edwards, and Layla McMutrie!
