We ended the school year with one of our most exciting and entertaining Whole School events - Guild Drama.

The Dorothy Knox Centre was crammed with the PLC Armidale community to watch our four Guilds battle it out for the Guild Drama Cup - and it was spectaculr to watch.

This entrely student led production is amazing and involves girls from kindergarten through to Year 11 - with a large cohort of our freshly graduated Year 12's also coming along to barrack for their Guild !! 

Every year, an inspirational quote is pulled from a hat and this year, in homage to our  2025 theme - 'from little things, big things grow' our inspirational quote was: "Even the tallest tree was once a tiny seed."

Each Guild created an entertaining drama using this quote as inspiration. The line also had to be used somewhere in the script, along with a prop that grew throughout the performance. The scripts, choreography, costumes, and music for each production were developed and performed entirely by the students.

As always, our fantastic P&F kept everyone happy with cold drinks, ice-blocks and snacks during intervals, along with a sausage sizzle in the garden as we awaited the judges decision.

Old Girls Joanne Knight, Emillie Reynolds and OGU Vice-President Peta Taylor, returned to campus as guest judges for the 2025 Guild Drama.

"The afternoon was alive with energy, creativity and plenty of nostalgia as students delivered outstanding performances," Peta said. "Every Guild brought something unique to the stage, making the judging process very challenging. A huge round of applause goes to all participants for their dedication and talent. You made it a truly memorable event."

And the winner of the 2025 Guild Drama was ..................Wilkie!
