Sunday 8 th June
Gehrmann Theatre, Brisbane Girls Grammar School
CIA Eisteddfods give students the opportunity to perform one or more pieces onstage in front of a supportive audience of their families and peers. They are also friendly competitions in which an expert adjudicator gives constructive feedback to all students and awards places.
This year we are holding two CIA Eisteddfods. The first, on Sunday 8 th June, will feature the categories of Poetry and Duologue.
Poetry—Students perform a poem of their choice (open to Years 2-10).
Duologue—Two students perform a short scene together (open to Years 4-10).
We will also be awarding $100 prizes to the Most Promising Performer in the Junior (Years 4-7) and Senior (Years 8-10) age groups. Students must enter both categories to be eligible for the prize.
Participation in our Eisteddfods boosts students’ confidence, hones their speaking skills, and rewards their creativity. I highly encourage everyone to take part. I provide all pieces to students, and all preparation is covered in class time.
The sooner you get your entry in, the sooner we can start preparing! Complete the form below to enrol. (For Duologue entries, both students must enrol).
