Ifest 2018

Ifest is a small music festival held at the school Ifest is a small music festival held at the school. It gives anyone the chance to showcase hidden talents for the first time or experienced performers the opportunity to nurture their ability.

This year there was a third stage, a musical theatre stage. This gave people a chance to act whilst singing. Some performances included ‘How far I’ll go’ from Moana and ‘Take me or leave me’ from Rent.

It was an amazing turnout with parents and students saying it was the best ifest so far!!!!!

Now imagine you have to sing confidently to all of them. Imagine you are standing in front of a hundred people and they're all looking at you. Now imagine you have to sing confidently to all of them. That is what every performer did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UlRIbpYTwk

We are given opportunities to be courageous every day We are given opportunities to be courageous every day. For some of us it could simply be to speak up in class or perhaps to compliment someone you know is struggling.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid.” Joshua 1.9 Take a moment to consider the opportunities you may have to be courageous today.

May you be inspired by the courage of the IFest performers to take every opportunity to be courageous. May you have the courage to start today!
