Neon- Our School Band

At Stanley Ave we always encourage teachers to make a difference in and out of the classroom. One of our staff has worked exceptionally hard over the last two years tutoring students in drums, guitars and vocals. This has led to the formation of our school band NEON! This group has performed at a wide range of events over the last two years. This culminated in them playing at the RockQuest Hamilton Band Competition. They were awesome! Special congratulations to our bassist who won the overall award for his talents on the night.

Somewhere over the Mountain

Over the last two terms the students, staff and community of Stanley Avenue have been working hard preparing an amazing production "Over the Mountain'. At Stanley Ave we are passionate about creating pathways for our students to follow their talents and passions. Our production produced an amazing opportunity for our students...... The amazing class scenes, lead actors, sound technicians, lighting, props creation, down to the amazing DVD that is being created as I write. An event like this doesn't just happen! Amazing staff and community support turned the Rec Centre into a fantasy land. Congratulations to all the classes, students, teachers and helpers who made this a great event!
