MS/US Audition Call-backs

Please check the lists outside the Black Box and the Music Room today to see if you have been asked to come for a call-back audition this Saturday from 10:00-12:00 in the PAC. If your name is not on this list, you may be included as an ensemble member. This full cast list (main cast, dancers, ensemble/chorus) will be posted Monday morning.

We would like all boys to listen to ‘She’s Not There’ and ‘Great Balls Of Fire’ and all girls to listen to ‘Teenager in Love’ and ‘Go Now’ from the RTTFP soundtrack in preparation for tomorrow’s audition.

Apple Service Notification

Occasionally, Apple will issue a “quiet” free service option for certain devices that exhibit consistent manufacturing faults. Our local vendor, SolutionKeys, likes to make sure that our community knows about these as soon as they are released so that we can take advantage of these services (should we need them). Please have a look at the most recent one here, to do with Keyboards in some MacBooks and MacBook Pros.

Thanks, Ms. Cassie and Mr. Wind!

Community Activities

Please check the newly updated Community activities catalog on Veracross.

https://programregistration.veracross.com/App/nis/ProgramRegistration/community/Programs/Browse”>

You can find the former “Crossfit” (by Mister T.) now under a new name: HIIT=High Intensity Interval Training.
The swim sessions you can find under “Stroke development” and “Triathlon/Fitness”. “Stroke development” is for beginners to improve every swim style not to learn how to swim. “Triathlon/Fitness” is more advanced and focused on freestyle.

Registration will open on Friday August the 24th.
