Greetings from your outgoing Webmaster.
I'm pleased to say that the past school year has been an excellent year for StuCo, with an amazing Semi-Formal, a dazzling talent show, a successful Carnival and a most enjoyable string of smaller events. For the first time, Student Council also took over organizing the Diversity Assembly and ran a successful multicultural food fest. Indeed, our year has been filled with events for the student body, organized by the Student Council.
It is now time for us to complete our final exams, relax at last after a year of hard work and learning, and begin a summer of fun — whatever your definition of fun may be.
This is also the time when my term as Webmaster formally ends, and when a new Council enters to take over from '08–'09. I wish the new Council of '09–'10 all the best in their endeavours, noting in particular my worthy successor.
RHHS Student Council 2009–2010… you've got big shoes to fill.
To my fellow students: have an awesome summer. |

 Every year, the RHHS Student Council organizes a talent show called Star Search, showcasing the best musical acts, dances, and demonstrations from talented students. This event is not only StuCo's cheapest event of the year for the general student population, but Star Search is also the only event where we give out awards — to the performers.
If you're interested in coming to this event, just read the details below. Tickets are typically not sold for Star Search; instead you pay at the door. Auditioning performers should read the section further down on this page.
Details
Some things you should know:
01Date: Wednesday, December 17, 2008
Time: 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
02Place: Cafeteria @ Richmond Hill High School - View Map
03Price: to be finalized;
tickets are not sold during lunch for this event
Sign-ups for auditions have already been concluded. Auditions will take place on Tuesday, December 2 after school in the small gym.
For Auditioning Performers
Performers must bring their own instruments, but a drum set will be provided.
Auditioning performers should note the following judging criteria (in order of importance):
A.Originality/creativity: judges at the auditions will be looking for acts that are out of the ordinary and that have not been encountered time and time again before. This is the most important criterion that will determine whether your act will be performed at Star Search.
B.Entertainment value: judges will be looking to see that acts fall within time limits, do not drag on, and are interesting — don't bore your judges!
C.Audience appeal: your act should indicate some type of audience interaction or involvement, and though this is not necessary, it is recommended, because it will make your act so much more popular!
D.Skill level: this event is a talent show, so acts that demonstrate practice or skills beyond the scope of most students will be well scored here.
E.Aesthetic appeal: this aspect is far more important during the real performance than the auditions, but effective use of the stage or performing space and other visual matters will score well for this criterion.
Good luck to all of our auditioning performers! I will be judging auditions on Tuesday.
If you're interested in this event, check out the event on Facebook and tell us whether you're going. Future events can always be found on our Student Council Events Calendar. |
