A SUCCESS...

'Catholic Schools On Stage' was a success! A night of building and maintaining connections between the wonderful people who call the Cairns region home, with the intention of utilizing the tremendous power of music to bridge the gap with others in need from all around the world. 

​

In partnership with St Andrew's Catholic College,

THE GIFT OF MUSIC, CAIRNS, is grateful to all who have given so freely of their time and talents to make this event what it is. This evening, over 650 students from Catholic Schools in the Cairns Diocese joined together, connecting those who have, to those who have not. This is a living example of Catholic Faith in Action and a fitting celebration of Catholic Education Week and the 200 Years of Catholic Education in Australia!

Featured bands and ensembles from:

​

• St Andrew's Catholic College

• St Mary's Catholic College
