Students play in mass recorder group

Umina Beach Public School's recorder ensemble recently travelled to the Sydney Opera House to perform in the Combined Public Schools Recorder Ensemble Concert.

After some sightseeing around Circular Quay, including Customs House, the Umina students arrived at the Opera House.

They met with 800 other recorder players to rehearse before the concert which is a part of the NSW Arts Unit's Festival of Instrumental Music.

Principal Ms Lyn Davis attended the concert and said she was blown away by the calibre of the event.

"I was proud of our Umina Beach students who played in the mass recorder group.

"These students have represented our school proudly in all rehearsals both inside and outside our school and on the day of the performance.

"They have practiced all year to play beautifully," she said.
