Singers impress: Dr Robb Dennis, the music strand coordinator at Avondale College of Higher Education, leads Avondale Singers and members of the community in the singing of the hymn, “Abide With Me,” during the memorial service at Morisset Country Club on Anzac Day. The performance, the vocal ensemble’s first at an Anzac service, impressed. The South Lake Macquarie RSL Sub Branch has invited Avondale Singers to perform again during the service marking the 100th anniversary of the landing of Australian and New Zealand troops at Gallipoli, on April 25, 2015.

Focus . . . on faith: Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Teaching student Ben Milis plays during Celebrate Easter in Avondale College Seventh-day Adventist Church on April 16. The concert, organised by Bachelor of Arts student Daniel Laredo, raised $1355 for The Promise. The vocal ensemble will use the money to help cover the cost of its tour to California, USA later this year. The meditative and reflective performances reminded those in the audience of the true meaning of Easter, says Daniel.—Brenton Stacey Credit: Maneesha Walsh.
