Year 12 Drama and IB Theatre Production
The Year 12 Drama and IB Theatre students are in the process of workshopping and rehearsing their major production, The Shape of Mind. The first act of the play explores the events of a single day: that of a Year 1 class returning to school on the first day of a new year, focusing on a handful of the students, their parents, and the class’s ageing teacher. The second act is set twenty-four years later and explores the unfolding stories of a selection of the characters from the first act. The final act returns to a day near the end of the school year for those children and their teacher and so provides a glimpse into how the present is influenced by the past, and the future by both. Through this structure, the play explores the variety of things that shape what is to come: the actions of others; the almost insignificant simple things; the people we carry; the thoughts that subtly nag us; the nature we have; the circumstances that nurture us; and ultimately what we choose to become.
Funny, poignant and thought-provoking, performances will take place on Wednesday 7 May and Thursday 8 May at 7pm. Mark it in your diary, invite your friends and family, book your free tickets, and enjoy the exceptional skills of our Year 12 Drama and Theatre students.

Sports Day 2025
Our Years 4 to 12 Sports Day is being held at the SA Athletics Stadium, Mile End on Friday 9 May (Friday of Week 2, Term 2).
The day will begin at 8.30am and will conclude by approximately 3.15pm.
Students are reminded to wear their complete PE uniform with a hat and House top. We encourage the girls to display their House Spirit, but body paint is not permitted at the venue.
There will be no specific lunch break, but girls can eat during breaks between their events. They are to either bring their recess and lunch or make use of the on-site canteen. They are advised to bring water bottles for the day and be prepared according to the weather forecast, applying sunscreen early. Additional sunscreen will also be available at the First Aid station.
We encourage all girls to compete in a number of events, with their preferences being discussed in PE lessons and House meetings. Sports Day is to be treated like a normal School day; therefore, attendance is compulsory for the whole day. If a student is unable to participate in their events, a note must be emailed to Miss Katherine Perkas via kperkas@stpetersgirls.sa.edu.au.
