The staff and students at St Joseph’s School wish to thank the community for their support of their recent successful musical, ‘Matilda, The Musical’.

Both performances were well attended, with positive comments received from patrons who thoroughly enjoyed the musical.

The musical is a unique opportunity provided by St Joseph’s School every two years which allows our students to showcase their talents.

Getting into the spirit of the theme of the musical was Joyce Pozzebon wearing her own school uniform from a few years ago, winning best dressed for Friday night, and Natalee McCosker who won best dressed on Saturday night.

Both ladies received a voucher kindly donated by Foxy’s Bakery.

A raffle was held on both nights with Fiona Patti winning the $60 Hotel Stanthorpe voucher and two bottles of Symphony Hill wines on Friday night and Denise Hilton winning the $100 QCWT voucher on Saturday.

A huge thank you is extended to these three businesses for their generosity in donating prizes as well as A Betterway to Print for sponsorship of the musical programs.

Several businesses jumped on board with sponsorship towards the hiring of the microphones. We thank R&F Steel Buildings, Out of the Box OT & Hand Therapy, John Barker General & Heavy Earthmoving, Stanthorpe Quality Meats, Cook’s Pure Apple Juice, Solar Blessing, Yarrabee Farmstay, Academy of Dance Stanthorpe, Cav Insure Insurance Broking Pty Ltd and Netpro Pty Ltd for their generosity. We also thank Charlie Patane for his invaluable assistance with the mics.

We thank Musical Director, Mrs Pauline Leigh, staff, parents, volunteers and students for their time and dedication during the past months. A musical’s success is a combined team effort of the cast, who spent the time learning parts and songs, as well as the crew and staff who provide assistance in numerous other roles.
