I am pleased to announce that the VCASS School Council unanimously supported my inclusion to the Hall of Fame. This was based on my achievements since graduating from the school.

“The whole VCASS community is very, very proud of the achievements of our fabulous Alumni. This featured wall in our new school is an inspiration to our students and community”.

VCASS, School of The Arts Singapore (SOTA) at VCASS

Mon, November 29, 2010 Comments Off by jacinta

It was wonderful to have students and staff from the School of The Arts Singapore (SOTA) at VCASS to share performances in the Year 11 Creative Season.

For me it was of much joy and happiness to have had the chance to meet Cheah Mei Sing, the Head Faculty of Dance, the dance staff and students.

It was of great pleasure for me to give the students ballet trainings and share with them my experience and knowledge in the arts.

I was touched by their performances and how focused and passionate they all are towards dance/the arts. I praise the dance faculty and SOTA for their hard work and achievements in creating a specialist school for the arts…. Excellent Work!

I look forward to seeing SOTA in Singapore.

I co-produced the Year 11 Creative Season… I liaised with the year 11 dancers concerning their progress with their works; their program notes, publicity, costumes, credits and organised their special staging requirements and performance schedules.

Above all it was important for me to encourage the students’ efforts and support during their creative endeavour.

VCASS – Malthouse Season

I will be re-staging Ascension for the Junior Dance Students for the Malthouse Season. Music: Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, choreographer: Lambro Lambrou. I have arranged a senior music lecturer, Sue Lyons to give a lecture to the dance students regarding the history of the symphony, the composer and how it relates to dance. The lecture will be an open invitation to the school.

“Good work staging Ascension. The dancers looked terrific. Well done!” (Head of Dance)

“Jacinta! Congratulations on last night. I thought Ascension went really well in a great night over all. Hope you are proud. You should be. Nice Work!”  (Tim Harbour)

“Jacinta, well done staging Ascension”… (Lisa Bolte)

VCASS – FAME performances

Tue, May 25, 2010 Comments Off by jacinta

I arranged for the students, parents and teachers to see the stage show “FAME”. This event was to excite the students into understanding how privileged they are to have been selected to attend the VCASS.

“Thanks you to Jacinta Walsh for organising FAME last night. It was lovely to see so many staff, parents and children together at a bit of a social event.

We appreciate Jacinta organising this good ticket price for us.” (Principal Colin Simpson, VCASS, May 2010)
