Individual Successes
Many of our talented musicians have continued to perform individually as part of the Gold Coast Eisteddfod. Whether they have received an award or not, the self-confidence gained from the experience is very valuable. If there are any individual results that we may not be aware of and are not listed below, please do not hesitate to advise the music department via music@sthildas.qld.edu.au
Congratulations to:
| Name | Year | Section | Result |
