Lutheran School students have been participating in an unusual talent contest recently.<\/p>\n<p>The inaugural &#8220;St John\u2019s Got Talent&#8221; is the initiative of music teacher Bill Sharp.<\/p>\n<p>Students have been practicing in preparation for the trials, which were held over the last few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Each morning tea has seen various performances in the senior and junior divisions.<\/p>\n<p>The student audience has welcomed the opportunity to watch the performers and have witnessed everything from lip syncing to singing, musical performances, dancing and martial arts displays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mr Sharp has been encouraged by the breadth of talent the students have displayed. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It takes a lot of courage to get up in front of your peers to sing or dance,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most of these students are not receiving any outside teaching in these areas, but are simply showing their love of performing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been very impressed with the varied performances the students have put together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bill said the process included the students nominating for a category, and then doing the actual performance over the two weeks the trials are run.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There will be a number of students who will be invited to perform their routines and songs to the whole school on Friday, November 6 before the regular Assembly,&#8221; Bill said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve had some parents drop by at morning tea to enjoy the entertainment too.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We know that many will join us on that Friday for the finals where some prizes and certificates will be awarded.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mr Sharp is having his first year at St John\u2019s.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It has been great to watch students perform items that they enjoy alongside their weekly music class lessons,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think the competition will get bigger each year as students become more confident at performing in front of a crowd.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Photos: St John&#8217;s Lutheran School]<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_125093\"
