One of the highlights of the Band Camp weekend is the Disco on Saturday evening. The gym is decorated, the music plays and a party host from Bop 'til you Drop leads the Disco including dancing, games and karaoke.
Junior and Intermediate Bands attend for one hour, and Performance Band have an additional half an hour.
Children are encouraged to dress up for the evening, and time is allocated before dinner for this.
The theme this year is 'Go for Gold!'. Think sports medals, superstars, sequins...
For students who prefer a calmer environment or just some time to rest, there are also activities outside the gym including handball and table tennis, and a games room.
A quieter Games Room will be set up in the nearby Hub room. Here students can take a quiet break away from the disco, and play board games, card games, Lego or read a book. A range of games and books will be available or children can bring their own.
If you would like to help on our Disco committee, the Disco shift runs between 5pm and 9pm on Saturday night. It involves transporting decorations from TPS, setting up the Disco, taking all the decorations down and returning decorations to TPS.
Here is a timetable and task list for the Disco shift: Saturday Disco task list
