Year 10 Drama class Perform an adaption of "Antigone"

Last weekend the year 10 Drama class presented performed an adaptation of Antigone by Sophocles over two nights.

Using the text of this classic Greek tragedy, students re-contextualised the play, changing place, setting and language to create a post-apocalyptic world. Students worked in design teams to design and produce sets, props, costumes, lighting and sound and a multi-media presentation for the Prologue which they created especially for the play.

The play told the story of Creon, King of Thebes, who turns on his niece Antigone when she defies his law and has her condemned to death. In the process he alienates his wife Eurydice and son Haemon, causes their deaths and loses everything that he holds dear.

The students did a terrific job developing their character and learning their lines and the play was very well received by audiences.

Lake Tali Karng Bushwalk unit 1&2

Sale College staudents recently enjoyed a fantastic bushwalk to Lake Tali Karng. The scenery was just spectacular as the many images from the camp show.

It was clearly a hard slog in places but the students enjoyed it and were rewarded for their efforts with fantastic views. It served to remind them of the natural beauty of our fragile environment and gain a better appreciation and respect for it.
