Congratulations to all of the Fairholme students who have not only been wonderful ambassadors for the College, but have been successful in achieving an incredible gamut of impressive results at this year’s Toowoomba Eisteddfod. From cleverly crafted solo items to breath-taking large-scale ensemble performances, our girls have enthusiastically taken to the Empire Theatre stage to showcase their immense talents and successfully deliver an array of award-winning performances across the Vocal, Choral, Instrumental, Dance and Speech & Drama sections at this year’s Toowoomba Eisteddfod.
