Instrumental Fanfare

Fanfare is the biennial state-wide festival of bands and orchestras from Queensland state schools. It showcases the exciting music-making that occurs in school-based ensembles across the state. The emphasis for Fanfare is on improving the quality of ensembles, promoting the highest possible standard of performance, striving for excellence and encouraging participation.

New Farm SS had 28 students participate in Fanfare 2024 this week and they all performed outstandingly. A huge thank you to Mr Colin McIntyre who did an amazing job leading the instrumental band at this event. Congratulations to all involved.

Teacher Planning

Each year level has been planning over the last week for the refining of our English curriculum. Did you know we have a new version of the curriculum being rolled out? This year we are focussed on English and Maths before we move to the other areas of the curriculum. Thank you to our dedicated teachers for all their hard work.
