The school is putting the final touches on a production of Grease, which first hit theatres in 1978.
Celebrating all things high school and rock 'n’ roll in the 1950s, director Sharyn Hill said cast and crew were primed for the show's debut on Thursday night.
“It's going really, well, the kids have lifted and lifted every time we get together,” she said.
“It's been such a beautiful collaborative process with our team and the students.
“They've had to learn about all the different relationships between the characters, even down to the chorus thinking about of we are at school, what's our relationship to other people.
“It is relevant to high school and teenagers.”
The spectacular show is set to debut this Thursday night at 7:30pm, and will also run on Friday and Saturday night.
