Victorian School Music Festival (VSMF) Strings
Our Year 7–12 string ensembles were the first of our 2026 VSMF entries performing over the past week. Preparing for an event like this requires exceptional effort, from weekly ensemble rehearsals to personal practice to master every part.
Our three ensembles presented polished performances, and the students gained valuable insights during an on-stage tutorial with the chief adjudicators.
Our Results:
- Phoenix Strings – Participation Award (awarded to all beginner groups in this category)
- Presto Strings – Silver Award
- Chamber Strings – Gold Award
Well done to all of our string performers on their outstanding dedication and self-motivation. Congratulations also to our ensemble directors Ms Keryn Lientschnig and Mr Timothy O’Connor for their hard work and support in directing these ensembles.
Lunchtime Concert
Today (Friday), our Stage Band and Jazz Band treated the Senior Campus to a fantastic lunchtime concert in the Senior Campus Fishbowl.
With their upcoming Victorian School Music Festival (VSMF) performances fast approaching, this concert offered an excellent platform for the groups to fine tune their pieces and reflect on their final preparations.
Thank you to all the staff and students who came along to support and encourage our music community at MWSC.

Music Director
